Description

MAN1A2 encodes a class I alpha-mannosidase that localizes to the Golgi apparatus and is involved in the early steps of N-glycan processing. It catalyzes the removal of alpha-1,2-linked mannose residues from Man9GlcNAc2 to produce Man5GlcNAc2, a critical step in the biosynthesis of complex N-glycans. The enzyme is essential for proper glycoprotein maturation and quality control.

Protein Summary

MAN1A2 is a 642-amino acid type II transmembrane protein localized to the Golgi. It contains a catalytic domain with a conserved (alpha/beta)8 barrel fold and a short N-terminal cytoplasmic tail. The enzyme removes specific mannose residues from Man9GlcNAc2, generating Man5GlcNAc2, which is the substrate for subsequent glycosyltransferases. Its activity is essential for the formation of complex and hybrid N-glycans.
