| Sysname |
polysialoside (2->8)-alpha-sialosylhydrolase
|

| Comment |
Although the name endo-N-acetylneuraminidase has also been used for this enzyme, this is misleading since its activity is not restricted to acetylated substrates. An exo-alpha-sialidase activity is listed as EC 3.2.1.18 exo-alpha-sialidase. See also EC 4.2.2.15 anhydrosialidase.
