Properties
Description
Lentinan-streptavidin, denoted streptavidin-lentinan, constructs an avidin-conjugated derivative through biotin-binding protein attachment to lentinan's polysaccharide matrix. The affinity-enhanced hybrid preserves triple-helix conformation while enabling modular targeting via thymic immune activation.
Glycan Structure
Its glycan structure is a β-(1→3)-linked d-glucose backbone with β-(1→6)-glucosyl side branches.
