Endo S2 Endo-β-N-acetylglucosaminidase S2 Recombinant Endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase
Endoglucosidase that acts as a host immune evasion factor by mediating hydrolysis of the N-linked glycan from the Fc region of host immunoglobulin-gamma (IgG) during infection, thereby preventing interaction between IgGs and Fc receptors and ability to activate the complement pathway. Endo S2 recognizes the conserved N-glycans on the Fc region of IgG by hydrolyzing the chitobiose core (at the beta -1,4 linkage between the two N-acetylglucosamines) of the N-glycans.
