Properties
Description
Lentinan-poly aspartic acid, designated poly aspartic acid-lentinan, comprises a modern biochemical hybrid combining the immunoregulatory β-1,3-1,6-glucan lentinan with poly aspartic acid. This synthesized molecule leverages lentinan's helical tertiary structure and tumor-inhibitory properties through thymus-mediated immune activation mechanisms.
Glycan Structure
Its glycan structure is a β-(1→3)-linked d-glucose backbone with β-(1→6)-glucosyl side branches.
Source
Chemical synthesis
Functional Group
Poly aspartic acid
Impurities
No visible impurities to the naked eye.
Solubility
This product is soluble in most organic solvents, such as DCM, DMF, DMSO, and THF, and exhibits excellent solubility in water.
Identity
Confirmed by NMR.
Applications
Lentinan-poly aspartic acid can be used for its potential to design poly-aspartic acid hybrids to reduce nonspecific protein adsorption in stealth drug carriers.
