Mannosidase

Mannosidase is an enzyme which hydrolyses mannose.[1]

There are two types:

  • alpha-Mannosidase
  • beta-Mannosidase

A deficiency is associated with mannosidosis.

A family of mannosidases are also responsible for processing newly formed glycoproteins in the endoplasmic reticulum into mature glycoproteins containing highly heterogeneous complex-type glycans.
