Properties
Description
Lentinan-ovalbumin, labeled ovalbumin-lentinan, generates an antigen-conjugated hybrid by attaching egg-white proteins to lentinan's polysaccharide chains. This immunogenic compound maintains helical integrity while enhancing vaccine efficacy through thymus-mediated antigen presentation.
Glycan Structure
Its glycan structure is a β-(1→3)-linked d-glucose backbone with β-(1→6)-glucosyl side branches.
