Abstract
Provided herein is an α-fucosidase that can cleave a conjugate comprising an N-glycan and a label where the label is added by amine reactive chemistry. The α-fucosidase also has an accelerated reaction time using Schiff base labeled N-glycans compared with bovine kidney fucosidase. A reaction mix, enzyme mix and kit comprising the α-fucosidase are provided, as well as a method for analyzing glycoproteins. The α-fucosidase finds particular use in analyzing the N-glycans of therapeutic glycoproteins.
