Man2b1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables alpha-mannosidase activity. Involved in oligosaccharide catabolic process. Acts upstream of or within learning or memory and mannose metabolic process. Is active in lysosomal lumen. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Used to study alpha-mannosidosis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in alpha-mannosidosis. Orthologous to human MAN2B1 (mannosidase alpha class 2B member 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Man2b1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
