Beta-mannosidase, a lysosomal enzyme which acts exclusively at the last step of oligosaccharide catabolism in glycoprotein degradation, functions to cleave the unique beta-linked mannose sugar found in all N-linked oligosaccharides of glycoproteins. Deficiency of this enzyme results in beta-mannosidosis, a
