mannitol:oxygen oxidoreductase (cyclizing)
Also catalyses the oxidation of D-arabinitol and, to a lesser extent, D-glucitol (sorbitol), whereas L-arabinitol is not a good substrate. The enzyme from the snails Helix aspersa and Arion ater is found in a specialised tubular organelle that has been termed the mannosome.
mannitol is a common and abundant carbohydrate component of plant food consumed by terrestrial gastropods, the presence and properties of mannitol oxidase imply an unusual route for mannitol metabolism via mannitol oxidase, hexokinase and phosphomannose isomerase
because of high mannitol content of many plants, the herbivorous diet of terrestrial snails, and the association of mannitol oxidase with their digestive tract, the snail enzyme may represent a unique nutritional adaption of these and possibly other herbivorous molluscs

configuration around carbon-2 and carbon-4 is critical for binding and reactivity, reactivity requires trans-configuration of the oxygens at carbons 2 and 4
no or very poor activity with L-arabinitol, glycerol, ribitol, erythritol, inositol, aplha-glycerol-phosphate, xylitol, ascorbate, D-glucose and D-galactose

naturally occuring polyols may be of nutritional value to herbivorous gastropod mollusc, mannitol oxidase plays a role in the metabolism of dietary sugar alcohols, gastropod molluscs derive nutritional benefit from ingestion of naturally orrurring polyols

the enzyme from the snails Helix aspersa, Arion ater and Arion lucitanicus is found in a specialised tubular distinct organelle that has been termed the mannosome, they commonly have a hexagonal arrangement surrounded by smooth membrane and enclose a central tubule

two major peptides, one, possibly a doublet, of 68000 Da and the other of higher mass. Two faint, faster moving peptides located between 45000 and 68000 Da, SDS-PAGE

solubilization and partial purification. Both ionic and non-ionic as well as zwitterionic detergents are effective in solubilizing mannitol oxidase, deoxycholate, 1%, readily releases membrane-bound activity, but is slightly inhibitory
