C. albicans N-linked mannans potentiate the induction of trained immunity via Dectin-2.

Journal of Infectious Diseases
The interaction between the Candida albicans cell wall and pattern recognition receptors is crucial for the initiation of host immune responses which, ultimately, contribute to the clearance of this pathogenic fungus. In the present study, we investigate

ASCA-related antibodies in the blood sera of healthy donors and patients with colorectal cancer: characterization with oligosaccharides related to Saccharomyces cerevisiae mannan

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2023
Mannans are polysaccharide antigens expressed on the cell wall of different fungal species including Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Candida spp. These fungi are components of the normal intestinal microflora, and the presence of antibodies to fungal ...

Two KTR Mannosyltransferases Are Responsible for the Biosynthesis of Cell Wall Mannans and Control Polarized Growth in Aspergillus fumigatus

mBio, 2019
The fungal cell wall is a complex and dynamic entity essential for the development of fungi. It allows fungal pathogens to survive environmental challenge posed by nutrient stress and host defenses, and it also is central to polarized growth.

The GPI-Anchored GH76 Protein Dfg5 Affects Hyphal Morphology and Osmoregulation in the Mycoparasite Trichoderma atroviride and Is Interconnected With MAPK Signaling

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
The fungal cell wall is composed of a cross-linked matrix of chitin, glucans, mannans, galactomannans, and cell wall proteins with mannan chains. Cell wall mannans are directly attached to the cell wall core, while the majority of mannoproteins is ...

A pair of esterases from a commensal gut bacterium remove acetylations from all positions on complex β-mannans

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019
Significance Acetylation is an important feature of hemicellulose, altering the physical properties of the plant cell wall and limiting enzyme accessibility. Removal of acetyl groups from β-mannan is a key step toward efficient utilization of this glycan

Impact of Modular Architecture on Activity of Glycoside Hydrolase Family 5 Subfamily 8 Mannanases

Molecules, 2022
Glycoside hydrolase family 5 subfamily 8 (GH5_8) mannanases belong to Firmicutes, Actinomycetia, and Proteobacteria. The presence or absence of carbohydrate-binding modules (CBMs) present a striking difference.

Myeloid C-type lectin receptors that recognize fungal mannans interact with Pneumocystis organisms and major surface glycoprotein.

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2019
Myeloid C-type lectin receptors (CLRs) are innate immune recognition molecules that bind to microorganisms via their carbohydrate recognition domains. In this study, we utilized a library of CLRs that recognize fungal mannans.
