General description
Mannan is the main component of yeast cell wall polysaccharides broadly present in nature, such as in plants, bacteria, yeasts, and other organisms. It comprises a highly branched complex carbohydrate, an α-1,6 backbone with α-1,2- and α-1,3-attached mannose side chains.
Application
Mannan from Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been used to coat the microtiter wells to quantify the levels of mannose-binding lectin (MBL) using a mannan-binding enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).
Biochem/physiol Actions
Mannan exhibits several biological properties, including antiproliferative, antioxidant, and immunomodulatory. It is used as a hardener ingredient and as an emulsion stabilizer. Mannan is also involved in the inhibition of pathogen adherence, regulation of bacterial growth, and enhancement of the immune response.
