Neuraminidase enzymes are glycoside hydrolase enzymes that catalyze hydrolysis of terminal sialic acid residues. The most well-known are the viral nearamidases, which promote influenza virus release. 3
Purified by affinity chromatography from Type VIII (N 5631)
One unit will liberate 1.0 μmole of N-acetylneuraminic acid per min at pH 5.0 at 37 °C using NAN-lactose or bovine submaxillary mucin unless otherwise specified.
Neuraminidase from Clostridium perfringens has been used in a study to assess purification via affinity chromatography. 1 It has also been used in a study to investigate site-directed mutations of amino acids of the neuraminidase gene, nanH. 2
Hydrolyzes α(2→3), α(2→6), and α(2→8)-glycosidic linkages of terminal sialic residues of various glycomolecules.
Neuraminidase can block attachment of type 3 reovirus to cell membranes. This effect is related to the ability of neuraminidase to hydrolysis sialic acid residues within cell surface receptors.
