Pyrogenicity of Yeast Mannans in Rabbits [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology and Immunology, 1984
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]

open access: yes, 2010
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

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
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

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1968
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]

open access: yesJournal of General Microbiology, 1969
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.

Effects of mannan level and β-mannanase supplementation on growth performance, apparent total tract digestibility and blood metabolites of growing pigs

open access: yesAnimal, 2017
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

Fluorescence activated cell sorting and fermentation analysis to study rumen microbiome responses to administered live microbials and yeast cell wall derived prebiotics

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Rapid dietary changes, such as switching from high-forage to high-grain diets, can modify the rumen microbiome and initiate gastrointestinal distress, such as bloating.

The CSLA and CSLC Families: Recent Advances and Future Perspectives

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2012
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

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2020
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 ...
