mngB - alpha-mannosidase

Introduction

mngB, a passage of gene in Escherichia coli K-12 substrain MG1655, can produce alpha-mannosidase, which is involved in the cleavage of the alpha form of mannose. The alpha-mannosidase reaction is to turn 2-O-(6-phospho-α-mannosyl)-D-glycerate into mannose-6-phosphate and glycerate.

Usage and Biology

The mannose degradation pathway is often seen in many organisms, such as the reverse reaction of the post-translation (glycosylation) on polar filaments of Fungi. The reason why we choose mannosidase gene from MG1655 is that this species of E-coli are able to live in bees' midgut. That way, this enzyme can well perform in our Bee. coli. We tend to overexpress this gene in order to inhibit the production of the polar protein in the sprouting of Nosema. ceranae, the target fungi that we are eager to eliminate. Sequence and Features
