PNGase A cleaves between the innermost GlcNAc and asparagine residues of high mannose, hybrid, and short complex oligosaccharides such as those found in plant and insect cells from N-linked glycoproteins and glycopeptides. PNGase A differs from PNGase F in that it cleaves N-linked glycans with or without α(1,3)-linked core fucose residues.
Cleaves N-glycans from plant and insect derived glycoproteins and glycopeptides
Activity is not inhibited by an α1-3 Fucose residue on the chitobiose core
Recombinant enzyme with no detectable exoglycosidase or other endoglycosidase contaminating activities
Glycerol-free for optimal performance in HPLC and mass spectrometry analysis
≥95% purity, as determined by SDS-PAGE and intact ESI-MS
Optimal activity and stability for up to 24 months
Product Information
PNGase A is a recombinant amidase, which cleaves between the innermost GlcNAc and asparagine residues of high mannose, hybrid, and short complex oligosaccharides such as those found in plant and insect cells from N-linked glycoproteins and glycopeptides. PNGase A differs from PNGase F in that it cleaves N-linked glycans with or without α(1,3)-linked core fucose residues.
Substrate SpecificityPNGase A hydrolyzes N-glycan chains from glycoproteins/peptides regardless of the presence of xylose or fucose. [x = H or Man or GlcNAc].
Product Source
Cloned from Oryza sativa (rice) and expressed in Pichia pastoris.

Properties & Usage
Unit Definition
One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme required to remove > 95% of the carbohydrate from 1 µg of denatured recombinant Avidin produced in Maize in 1 hour at 37°C in a total reaction volume of 10 µl.
1 μg of recombinant Avidin is denatured with 1X Glycoprotein Denaturing Buffer at 100°C for 10 minutes. After the addition of NP-40 and GlycoBuffer 3, two-fold dilutions of PNGase A are added and the reaction mix is incubated for 1 hour at 37°C. Separation of reaction products are visualized by SDS-PAGE.
NEB's version of PNGase A can cleave glycoproteins, there is no need for tryptic digest prior to deglycosylation.
PNGase A can cleave N-linked glycans containing core α1-3 Fucose.
PNGase A activity is inhibited by SDS, therefore under denaturing conditions it is essential to have NP-40 present in the reaction mixture in a 1:1 ratio.
A good positive control substrate is recombinant avidin from maize or HRP.
