Properties
Description
Mannose-PEG-glycyrrhetinic acid, alternatively named glycyrrhetinic acid-PEG-mannose, is a research molecule formed by binding mannose to glycyrrhetinic acid with a 3 kDa PEG chain, merging mannose's lectin interaction, PEG's hydrophilicity, and glycyrrhetinic acid's properties.
