Gene: [15q1/MANAA] mannosidase, alpha A, cytoplasmic;

NOM

To avoid confusion, the GEM Catalogue adopted the modified denotation for alpha-mannosidase genes: MANAA - alpha A, cytoplasmic; MANAB - alpha B, lysosomal (GEM:19q1/MANB); alpha, type II (GEM:05q2/MANA2); alpha, type II(X) (GEM:15q25/MAN2A2); and man9-alpha, type II (GEM:00.0/MAN1A1)."

FAG

On beta-mannosidase see GEM:04q2/MANBA and GEM:00.0/MANBB.

FUN

Systematic name: alpha-D-mannoside mannohydrolase. The enzyme catalyzes hydrolysis of terminal, non-reducing alpha-D-mannose residues in alpha-D-mannosides. Also can hydrolyse alpha-D-lyxosides and heptopyranosides with the same configuration at C-2, C-3 and C-4 as mannose."
