General description

Peptide-N-glycosidase F (PNGase F) belongs to an enzyme family, that are mainly used for the deglycosylation of N-linked glycans.

Application

PNGase Fast may be used to immobilize in order to perform deglycosylation. It may also be used to immobilize onto methacrylate based monolithic support to release the N-linked carbohydrate moieties from glycoproteins.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Peptide-N-glycosidase F (PNGase F) cleaves asparagine-linked high mannose, hybrid and complex oligosaccharides from glycoproteins. It can also deaminate the asparagine to aspartic acid. PNGase Fast enables complete and rapid deglycosylation of antibodies and immunoglobulin fusion proteins, as well as other glycoproteins, to be prepared for downstream chromatography or mass spectrometry analysis. PNGase Fast creates an optimized workflow, reducing processing time without compromising sensitivity or reproducibility.

Storage Class Code

10 - Combustible liquids

There are several methods, both chemical and enzymatic, to release N-linked glycans for structural characterization. One of the most common enzymatic release methods is the use of peptide:N-glycosidase F (PNGase F). A less expensive and quicker alternative has been reported

Due to advances in sequencing technologies, identification of genetic variants is rapid. However, the functional consequences of most genomic variants remain unknown. Consequently, variants of uncertain significance (VUS) that appear in clinical DNA diagnostic reports lack sufficient data for interpretation.
