Properties
Description
Aspartic acid-xylan conjugation combines dicarboxylic amino acid properties with xylan's β-1,4-linked xylose architecture. The polysaccharide component contributes to improved aqueous stability through charge-mediated hydration.
Glycan Structure
Its glycan structure is a linear backbone of β-1,4-linked D-xylose residues with side-chain substitutions including α-linked arabinofuranose, glucuronic acid/4-O-methyl-glucuronic acid, and acetyl groups at O-2 or O-3 positions.
