Gene Review

MAN1A2  -  mannosidase, alpha, class 1A, member 2

Homo sapiens

Synonyms: Alpha-1,2-mannosidase IB, MAN1B, Mannosidase alpha class 1A member 2, Mannosyl-oligosaccharide 1,2-alpha-mannosidase IB, Processing alpha-1,2-mannosidase IB
 
 

 

 

Summary

Alpha-mannosidases function at different stages of N-glycan maturation in mammalian cells. See MAN2A1 (MIM 154582) for general information.[supplied by OMIM]

 

 

Function

Involved in the maturation of Asn-linked oligosaccharides. Progressively trim alpha-1,2-linked mannose residues from Man9GlcNAc2 to produce Man5GlcNAc2.
