Properties
Description
The WSW peptide-xylan hybrid integrates structural peptide motifs with xylan's β-1,4-xylose scaffold derived from vegetative sources. This conjugation enhances aqueous dispersibility through the polysaccharide's inherent hydration capacity and polymer network.
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.
