要旨
1. Snail beta-mannosidase showed a Km value of 0.05 mM toward MU-beta-Man and could not be inhibited by Man, GlcNAc, Man beta(1-4)GlcNAc, Man beta(1-4)GlcNAc beta(1-N)urea or Man beta(1-4) GlcNAc beta(1-4)GlcNAc. 2. The Km value of the snail enzyme towards Man beta(1-4)GlcNAc, as measured by HPLC, was 10 mM, explaining the lack of inhibition. 3. The Km value of the human serum beta-mannosidase towards MU-beta-Man was 0.3 mM, but the human enzyme was not capable of degrading Man beta(1-4)GlcNAc in detectable amounts.
