Neuraminidase, or lysosomal sialidase , has a dual physiologic function: it participates in intralysosomal catabolism of sialated glycoconjugates and is involved in cellular immune response. The enzyme occurs in a complex with beta-galactosidase (GLB1) and protective protein/cathepsin A (CTSA).The cDNA predicted a 415-amino acid protein showing extensive homology to other mammalian and bacterial neuraminidases. After the cleavage of a 47-amino acid N-terminal signal peptide and glycosylation, it becomes a 48.3-kD mature active enzyme similar to that found in the multienzyme lysosomal complex. Transient expression of cDNA in deficient human fibroblasts showed that the enzyme is compartmentalized in lysosomes and restores neuraminidase activity in a PPCA-dependent manner.

Pig Sialidase-1 (NEU1) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate NEU1 in samples. An antibody specific for NEU1 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyNEU1 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for NEU1 is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of NEU1 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
