Descriptor alfa-manosidasa
Entry term(s) alfa-D-manósido manohidrolasa
alfa-manosidasa lisosómica
Scope note: Enzima que cataliza la HIDRÓLISIS de residuos terminales no reductores de alfa-D-manosa en alfa-D-manósidos. La enzima interviene en la transformación de los N-glucanos recién formados y en la degradación de GLICOPROTEÍNAS maduras. Existen múltiples isoformas de alfa-manosidasa, cada una de las cuales tiene su ubicación celular específica y su pH óptimo. Los defectos de la forma lisosómica de la enzima causan una acumulación de los oligosacáridos ricos en manosa, dando lugar a la ALFA-MANOSIDOSIS.

RDF Unique Identifier: https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D043323
Scope note: An enzyme that catalyzes the HYDROLYSIS of terminal, non-reducing alpha-D-mannose residues in alpha-D-mannosides. The enzyme plays a role in the processing of newly formed N-glycans and in degradation of mature GLYCOPROTEINS. There are multiple isoforms of alpha-mannosidase, each having its own specific cellular location and pH optimum. Defects in the lysosomal form of the enzyme results in a buildup of mannoside intermediate metabolites and the disease ALPHA-MANNOSIDOSIS.
