A 1,2-α-D-mannosidase was purified to homogeneity from the culture supernatant of Bacillus sp. M-90, which was isolated from soil by enrichment culture on baker's yeast mannan. The purified enzyme had M(r) 380,000 Da, and was comprised of two apparently identical 190,000 Da subunits. It had a neutral optimum pH (7.0) and an isoelectric point of 3.6. The enzyme was highly specific for α-1,2-linked D-mannose oligosaccharides. An N-linked high-mannose type oligosaccharide, Man9GlcNAc2, was a good substrate, yielding Man5GlcNAc2, and the α-1,2-linked side chains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae mannan were also specifically hydrolyzed by the enzyme. p-Nitrophenyl α-D-mannopyranoside and 1,2-α-D-mannobiitol were not hydrolyzed at all. Calcium ion, 1-deoxyman-nojirimycin, and swainsonine had no effect on the enzyme, but the activity was completely inhibited by EDTA. The mode of action on α-1,2-linked mannotetraose indicated that the enzyme is an exo-1,2-α-D-mannanase.
