Common NameMannotetraose
DescriptionMannotetraose is a carbohydrate belonging to the class of oligosaccharides. It is composed of four mannose units linked by glycosidic bonds, forming a linear structure that is significant in various biochemical pathways. Mannotetraose is produced through enzymatic hydrolysis of mannans, as demonstrated by the optimization of hydrolysis conditions yielding 12.126 mg/mL of mannotetraose in a short time frame (PMID:38890382 ). It has been utilized in competitive binding assays, where Cy5.5-mannotetraose was employed as a fluorescent ligand to study interactions with Concanavalin A (PMID:39536779 ). Additionally, its synthesis and structural properties have been explored through molecular docking studies, revealing interactions within enzyme active sites that facilitate its generation (PMID:38885857 ). Mannotetraose also exhibits varying affinities in binding assays, showing a stronger interaction with certain proteins compared to its shorter oligomeric counterparts (PMID:37793172 ). Furthermore, the transglycosylation reactions involving mannotetraose highlight its role as an intermediate in the conversion of mannose and mannan substrates (PMID:37744260 ). Overall, mannotetraose is an important component in the study of carbohydrate chemistry and enzymatic processes.
