Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Enables beta-mannosidase activity. Involved in glycoprotein catabolic process and oligosaccharide catabolic process. Located in extracellular space. Is active in lysosomal lumen. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; ear; genitourinary system; heart; and nervous system. Used to study beta-mannosidosis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in beta-mannosidosis. Orthologous to human MANBA (mannosidase beta).
