FunFam 1: Alpha-mannosidase

There are 2 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
Mannosyl-oligosaccharide 1,3-1,6-alpha-mannosidase. [EC: 3.2.1.114]
Man(5)GlcNAc(3)-[protein] + 2 H(2)O = Man(3)GlcNAc(3)-[protein] + 2 alpha-D-mannopyranose.
  • The enzyme, found in plants and animals, participates in the processing of N-glycans in the Golgi apparatus.
  • It removes two mannosyl residues, one linked by alpha-1,3 linkage, and the other linked by alpha-1,6 linkage, both of which are removed by the same catalytic site.
  • The enzyme is sensitive to swainsonine.

Alpha-mannosidase. [EC: 3.2.1.24]
Hydrolysis of terminal, non-reducing alpha-D-mannose residues in alpha-D- mannosides.
  • Also hydrolyzes alpha-D-lyxosides and heptopyranosides with the same configuration at C-2, C-3 and C-4 as mannose.
