Substrate specificities

GH92 enzymes are exo-acting alpha-mannosidases. The first reported enzyme activity from this family was an alpha1,2-mannosidase from Microbacterium sp. M-90. [1] Recently the characterization of 22 GH92 enzymes from Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron confirmed an exo-mode of action but alpha1,2-mannosidase, alpha1,3-mannosidase, alpha1,4-mannosidase and alpha1,6-mannosidase activities were detected [2] [3, 4, 5].

Catalytic Residues

Content is to be added here. Based on 3D structural data on the alpha1,2-mannosidase Bt3990 Glu533 is the predicted catalytic acid. This view is supported by a mutant of this residue, which is essentially inactive, and its conservation throughout the GH92 family.

Three-dimensional structures

Content is to be added here.
