Man-5

Oligomannose-5; Mannopentaose-di-(N-acetyl-D-glucosamine); Man5(GlcNac)2

Man-5 is a specific oligosaccharide and a key intermediate in the synthesis of N-linked glycans. Its structure is a branched chain of five mannose units. This compound is a precursor to more complex N-glycans and is crucial for the proper folding and function of many proteins.
