Activity on 4-MeUMB-Man was greater, permitting full Michaelis-Menten kinetics and allowing description of the SpGH38 as an α − mannosidase with a kcat of 1. 8±0.24 min − 1 and K.

Here we show that the Streptococcus pyogenes (M1 GAS SF370) GH38 enzyme (Spy1604; hereafter SpGH38) is an α − mannosidase with specificity for α − 1,3 mannosidic linkages.

Drosophila GH38 α − mannosidase II, which has been shown to be a retaining α − mannosidase that targets both α − 1,3 and α − 1,6 mannosyl linkages, an activity that enables the enzyme to process GlcNAc (Man) 5 (GlcNAc) 2 hybrid N-glycans to GlcNAc (Man) 3 (GlcNAc) 2.

The two enzymes, 'alpha-man' (alpha-mannosidase) and 'beta hex' (beta delta N-acetylhexosaminidase), are specifically linked to fruit softening that happens during ripening.

One possible role for the GH38 α − mannosidase and GH84 β − GlcNAcase enzymes might therefore be in the subsequent intracellular utilization of The sequence of full length S. pyogenes α-mannosidase II, coding for SpGH38 residues

We have shown that The S. pyogenes ORF spy1604 encodes an α − 1,3 mannosidase that is active on disaccharides, some aryl glycosides and can also effectively deglycosylate human
