Pyrogenicity of Yeast Mannans in Rabbits [PDF]
AbstractA few yeast mannans free from protein and phosphorus showed pyrogenic activity in rabbits although the extent of this activity was considerably lower than that of the bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS). The pyrogenic activity was not abolished by treatment with sodium deoxycholate. This result showed that the mannans themselves participated in

Self-assembled nanogel made of mannan : synthesis and characterization [PDF]
Amphiphilic mannan (mannan-C16) was synthesized by the Michael addition of hydrophobic 1-hexadecanethiol (C16) to hydroxyethyl methacrylated mannan (mannan-HEMA).

Magnetic Resonance Reveals Radical Stability in Native Biofilms and Its Role in Bacterial Resistance
The complex biofilm environment consists of planktonic bacterial cells and cells embedded in an extracellular matrix (ECM). Through an integrated magnetic resonance approach, we show that nitroxide radicals primarily interact with the polysaccharides and lipids in the ECM.

The Biosynthesis of Mannan in Saccharomyces carlsbergensis
Abstract A particulate preparation obtained by lysing yeast protoplasts was found to catalyze the incorporation of radioactivity from guanosine diphosphate 14C-mannose into a mannose polysaccharide. The km for guanosine diphosphate mannose is 0.5 mm, and the optimum pH is between 5.5 and 7.2. There is an almost absolute requirement of Mn++ for activity,

Serological Specificity of Yeast Mannan [PDF]
SUMMARY: Soluble serologically active preparations extracted by various methods from Saccharomyces spp. showed the group specificity previously detected by agglutination tests with whole cells. The antigenic properties of the four serological groups of the genus Saccharomyces are probably determined by the cell wall mannan.

The exogenous enzymes are less consistent in their effects as their beneficial effects depend upon the types and level non-starch polysaccharides (NSP) present in the diets. Therefore, exogenous enzymes should be selected on the basis of types and amount

The CSLA and CSLC Families: Recent Advances and Future Perspectives
The CELLULOSE SYNTHASE (CESA) superfamily of proteins contains several sub-families of closely related CELLULOSE SYNTHASE-LIKE (CSL) sequences, Among these, the CSLA and CSLC families are closely related to each other and are the most evolutionarily ...

Loss of Kex2 Affects the Candida albicans Cell Wall and Interaction with Innate Immune Cells
The secretory pathway in Candida albicans involves the protein translocation into the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum and transport to the Golgi complex, where proteins undergo posttranslational modifications, including glycosylation and proteolysis ...
