Mannans and mannan oligosaccharides (MOS) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae – A sustainable source of functional ingredients

open access: yesCarbohydrate Polymers, 2021
Sustainable industry practices and circular economy concepts encourage the transformation of production waste into by-products. Saccharomyces cerevisiae is widely used in fermentation industry worldwide, generating large amounts of spent yeast which is mainly directed to animal feed or discarded as waste.

Use of mannans as an elicitor of the defense response on Vitis vinifera against fungi causing Grapevine Trunk Diseases. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE
Grapevine Trunk Diseases (GTDs) are caused by phytopathogenic fungi that compromise grapevine productivity and wine quality. Most GTDs preventive treatments are chemical-based and environmentally harmful. One goal of the European Green Deal is to develop

Sucrose and Mannans Affect Arabidopsis Shoot Gravitropism at the Cell Wall Level

open access: yesPlants
Gravitropism is the plant organ bending in response to gravity. Gravitropism, phototropism and sufficient mechanical strength define the optimal position of young shoots for photosynthesis.

Candida tropicalis PMT2 Is a Dispensable Gene for Viability but Required for Proper Interaction with the Host [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Fungi
Candidemia is an opportunistic mycosis with high morbidity and mortality rates. Even though Candida albicans is the main causative agent, other Candida species, such as Candida tropicalis, are relevant etiological agents of candidiasis and candidemia ...

Rapid synthesis of α(1,2)-d-mannans on the surface of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and their nitric oxide-inducing activities

open access: yesCarbohydrate Polymer Technologies and Applications, 2023
The mannose cap motif, which consists of short-chain α(1,2)-d-mannans located on the non-reducing end of Mycobacterium tuberculosis’ mannose-capped lipoarabinomannan (ManLAM), exhibits strong binding affinities toward the lectins on mammalian host cells.

Influence of Dissolved Oxygen Level on Chitin–Glucan Complex and Mannans Production by the Yeast Pichia pastoris

open access: yesLife, 2022
The yeast Pichia pastoris was cultivated under different dissolved oxygen (DO) levels (5, 15, 30 and 50% of the air saturation) to evaluate its impact on the production of the cell-wall polysaccharide chitin–glucan complex (CGC) and mannans.

Comparative Analysis of Mannans Extraction Processes from Spent Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae

open access: yesFoods, 2022
Mannans are outstanding polysaccharides that have gained exponential interest over the years. These polysaccharides may be extracted from the cell wall of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and recovered from the brewing or synthetic biology industries, among ...

Does supplementing β-mannanase modulate the feed-induced immune response and gastrointestinal ecology in poultry and pigs? An appraisal

open access: yesFrontiers in Animal Science, 2022
The provision of adequate and balanced nutrients is critical for efficient and profitable animal protein production. However, non-nutritive components in feedstuffs can elicit responses that can negatively impact nutrient utilization efficiency.
