Properties
Description
His-tagged sialidase S from Streptococcus pneumoniae preferentially releases a(2-3)-linked N-acetylneuraminic acid from complex carbohydrates.
Unit Definition
One unit will catalyze the release of 1 µmole of p-nitrophenol from p-nitrophenyl-α-D-N-acetylneuraminic acid per minute at pH 5.5 at 37°C.
Source
Streptococcus pneumoniae
Applications
His-tagged sialidase S from Streptococcus pneumoniae can be used for exoglycosidase sequencing.
