Descripción

General description

Neuraminidase hydrolyzes terminal N- or O-acylneuraminic acids which are α2,3-, α2,6-, or α2,8-linked (rate: α2,6 > α2,3 > α2,8) to oligosaccharides, polysaccharides, mucopolysaccharides, glycoproteins, and glycolipids. Noteworthy, for the hydrolysis of glycolipids, the presence of a detergent is necessary. Because of the broad substrate specificity, the enzyme is very well suited for the complete removal of sialic acids from glycoconjugates of a wide variety of biological materials.[1]

Specificity

Cleaves terminal sialic-acid residues that are α2,3-, α2,6-, or α2,8-linked to Gal, GlcNAc, GalNAc, AcNeu, GlcNeu, oligosaccharides, glycolipids, or glycoproteins. Relative rate of cleavage is α2,6 >α2,3 >α2,8, determined on bonds in tri- and tetrasaccharides.

Application

• cell surface lectin array analysis.[2][3][4]
• hemagglutination assays.[5]
• cell adhesion assay.[6]

For the hydrolysis of glycolipids, the presence of a detergent is necessary. Because of the broad substrate specificity, the enzyme is very well suited for the complete removal of sialic acids from glycoconjugates of a wide variety of biological materials.

Neuraminidase has been used for the:

• detection of the cell surface glycosylations in human anaplastic large cell lymphoma cells[2]
• release of sialic acid from cells[7]
• antibody-overlay lectin microarray[4]
