Methyl α-D-mannopyranoside is a compound that belongs to the class of organic compounds known as o-glycosyl compounds. It is used for the differentiation of Listeria species, Listeria monocytogenes, Listeria innocua, and Listeria welshimeri can ferment the sugar, producing acid which can be identified using an appropriate pH indicator. It has been used to synthesize a series of tri- and tetrahydroxylated seven-membered imino sugars in a study that worked towards a stable Noeuromycin (glycosyl cation mimic that strongly inhibits glycosidases) analog with a D-manno configuration. It has also been used in a study to investigate the primary mannose-binding site of Pradimicin A. (antifungal agent)
Application
Methyl α-D-mannopyranoside can be used to identify different species of Listeria based on their ability to ferment the sugar.

Urinary tract infection (UTI) caused by uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is one of the most prevalent infectious diseases. Particularly affected are women, who have a 40-50% risk to experience at least one symptomatic UTI episode at some time during their
A virtual screening approach was used to identify new glycomimetics. The National Cancer Institute Diversity Set was docked into the carbohydrate binding site of the lectin concanavalin A (ConA). The resulting poses were analyzed and 19 molecules were tested for
GP2 is the major membrane protein present in the pancreatic zymogen granule, and is cleaved and released into the pancreatic duct along with exocrine secretions. The function of GP2 is unknown. GP2's amino acid sequence is most similar to that
Over the past 10 years we have been developing a multi-attribute analytical platform that allows for the preparation of milligram amounts of functional, high-pure, and stable Torpedo (muscle-type) nAChR detergent complexes for crystallization purpose. In the present work, we have
Culture media provides a habitat with suitable nutrients, energy sources, and certain environmental conditions for the growth of microorganisms. The components of the culture media range from simple sugars to peptones, salts, antibiotics, and complex indicators.
