Structural characteristics of Saccharomyces cerevisiae mannoproteins: Impact of their polysaccharide part

While they have many properties of interest in enology, the structure-function relationships of mannoproteins and the part played by their polysaccharide moiety are not yet well understood. Mannoproteins (MP) extracted with β-glucanase from a laboratory yeast strain (WT), two of its mutants (Mnn2 with unbranched N-glycosylated chains and Mnn4 without mannosyl-phosphorylation), and an enological strain (Com) were purified and thoroughly...
