Abstract
β-Mannosidase (EC 3.2.1.25) is an important exoglycosidase specific for the hydrolysis of terminal β-linked mannoside in various oligomeric saccharide structures. β-Mannosidase from Aspergillus niger was expressed in Pichia pastoris and purified to clear homogeneity. β-Mannosidase was crystallized in the presence of D-mannose and the crystal diffracted to 2.41 Å resolution. The crystal belonged to space group P1, with unit-cell parameters a=62.37, b=69.73, c=69.90 Å, α=108.20, β=101.51, γ=103.20°. The parameters derived from the data collection indicate the presence of one molecule in the asymmetric unit.
