Usage

Description

Isomaltotetraose is a complex carbohydrate composed of four glucose units linked together. It is a type of oligosaccharide that can be found in various natural sources, including plants and some microorganisms. Isomaltotetraose has unique properties that make it useful in various applications, particularly in the field of immunology and pharmaceuticals.

Uses

Used in Immunology:
Isomaltotetraose is used as an immunizing agent for the production of hybridoma antibodies. The utilization of synthetic glycolipids as antigens allows researchers to study the gene control of antibody responses to glycolipids and to investigate the combining-site specificities of antibodies to a single antigenic determinant. This application is particularly relevant in the development of targeted therapies and vaccines.
Used in Pharmaceutical Research:
In the pharmaceutical industry, isomaltotetraose is used as a key component in the development of drugs that target specific biological pathways. Its unique structure and properties make it a valuable tool for designing and synthesizing novel therapeutic agents.
Used in Drug Delivery Systems:
Isomaltotetraose can also be employed in the design of drug delivery systems, where it can be used to improve the targeting and bioavailability of therapeutic agents. Its ability to interact with specific biological molecules makes it a promising candidate for the development of targeted drug delivery platforms.

Research on the strong transglycosylation activity in Aspergillus niger

Aspergillus niger M-1 strain shows strong transglycosylation activity. A gene of it was introduced into Escherichia coli, and isomalto-oligosaccharides were isolated by a chemical enzymatic method in order to measure the transglycosylation activity.
