MAN2B1 sirna
MAN2B1 siRNA (Human)
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes an enzyme that hydrolyzes terminal, non-reducing alpha-D-mannose residues in alpha-D-mannosides. Its activity is necessary for the catabolism of N-linked carbohydrates released during glycoprotein turnover and it is member of family 38 of glycosyl hydrolases. The full length protein is processed in two steps. First, a 49 aa leader sequence is cleaved off and the remainder of the protein is processed into 3 peptides of 70 kDa, 42 kDa (D) and 13/15 kDa (E). Next, the 70 kDa peptide is further processed into three peptides (A, B and C). The A, B and C peptides are disulfide-linked. Defects in this gene have been associated with lysosomal alpha-mannosidosis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]
Uniprot Description
MAN2B1: Necessary for the catabolism of N-linked carbohydrates released during glycoprotein turnover. Cleaves all known types of alpha-mannosidic linkages. Defects in MAN2B1 are the cause of lysosomal alpha- mannosidosis (AM). AM is a lysosomal storage disease characterized by accumulation of unbranched oligosaccharide chains. This accumulation is expressed histologically as cytoplasmic vacuolation predominantly in the CNS and parenchymatous organs. Depending on the clinical findings at the age of onset, a severe infantile (type I) and a mild juvenile (type II) form of alpha-mannosidosis are recognized. There is considerable variation in the clinical expression with mental retardation, recurrent infections, impaired hearing and Hurler- like skeletal changes being the most consistent abnormalities. Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 38 family.

Product Notes
The MAN2B1 man2b1 (Catalog #AAA8229821) is a siRNA produced from Synthetic and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The MAN2B1 siRNA (Human) reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's MAN2B1 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, RNA Interference (RNAi). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the MAN2B1 man2b1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "MAN2B1, siRNA" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
