Description | beta-Mannosidase (EC 3.2.1.25) is an important exoglycosidase specific for the hydrolysis of terminal beta-linked mannoside in various oligomeric saccharide structures. beta-Mannosidase from Asperigillus niger was expressed in Pichia pastoris and purified to clear homogeneity. beta-mannosidase was crystallized in the presence of D-mannose and the crystal diffracted to 2.41 A resolution. The crystal belonged to space group P1. Monomeric structure was observed in the asymmetric unit. |
