General description
Neuraminidase enzymes are hydrolase enzymes that promote influenza virus release from infected cells and facilitate virus spread.
Application
Biochem/physiol Actions
Neuraminidase can increase aggregation in certain cell lines by removing exposed negatively charged sialic acid residues on the cell surface. [3]
Neuraminidase cleavage of sialic acid groups has been used to study recognition by antibodies of glycoprotein structures. The use of neuraminidase in the estimation of N-acetylneuraminic acid was compared favorably to two other methods.
Neuraminidases are used to cleave terminal N-acetyl neuraminic acid (sialic acid) from a variety of glycoproteins. The enzyme from Clostridium perfringens cleaves terminal sialic acid residues which are α-2,3- α-2,6- or α-2,8-linked to Gal, GlcNac, GalNAc, AcNeu, GlcNeu, oligosaccharides, glycolipids or glycoproteins. The relative rate of cleavage decreases in the order: α-2-3 > α-2-6 . α-2-8. Neuraminidase from C. perfringens cleaves α-2-3 linked sialic acid residues most efficiently, compared to A. ureafaciens, (Sigma N3642) which preferentially cleaves α-2-6 linked residues.
The use of neuraminidase to remove sialic acid residues from glycoproteins on cell surfaces has been frequently reported. Generally, procedures have indicated using neuraminidase in PBS at 37°C for 30 minutes, followed by several washings with PBS. Treatment of tissue sections with neuraminidase at much lower concentrations require longer incubation: for 1-4 U/mL in 0.1 M acetate buffer pH 4.2-5, from 2 to 20 hours at 37 °C.

I noticed from previous answers, the strorage concentration should be 2mg/ml. But the package is 25U not 25mg, how can I convert U into mg? Or actally it's exact 1U for 1mg? Thanks!

So it is not totally clear for me, if I order 25UNITS of this product, and I dissolve it 25 mL of 0.2% BSA solvent OR 25 mL of 10mM phosphate buffer (with 25-150 mM KCl, and without BSA) I will get 1U/ml enzyme solvent for my hemagglutination reaction?
1 answer-
Yes. Dissolving 25 units of an enzyme in 25 ml of various solvents results in a final concentration of 1 mg/ml of the enzyme.

What should I use to dilute this product?
1 answer-
For assay purposes, this product is reconstituted at 0.02 - 0.04 u/mL in water containing 0.2% bovine serum albumin (BSA). The enzyme may also be prepared as follows:
Water containing 0.2% BSA at 2 mg/mL yielding a clear tan or brown solution
10 mM phosphate buffer, pH 6, containing 25 to 150 mM KCl at 120ug/mL. This stock solution may be stored refrigerated for several months.Helpful?

Does this enzyme cleave Neu5Gc?
1 answer-
Product N2876, Neuraminidase, will cleave α2-3, α2-6, and α2-8 glycosidic linkages. Neu5Gc are mostly found terminally on glycan chains of glycoproteins and glycolipids. They are commonly linked via an α2-3 or α2-6 linkage to Gal, an α2-6 linkage to GalNAc, or via an α2-8 linkage to another sialic acid.

How should lyophilized neuraminidase be resuspended for storage in aqueous form? I plan to introduce it to cell culture.
1 answer-
The recommendation is to dissolve in water containing 0.2% BSA (albumin) at 2 mg/mL. This will yield a clear tan or brown solution. Neuraminidase is a comparatively stable enzyme in solution. When dissolved at 120 µg/mL in 10 mM phosphate buffer, pH 6, containing 25 to 150 mM KCl, the enzyme retained activity at 0-4 C for over 30 months. At a concentration of 2 µg/mL under the same conditions, activity was lost unless albumin (BSA) was added.
