Advancing Solutions to the Carbohydrate Sequencing Challenge [PDF]
Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2019 Carbohydrates possess a variety of distinct features with stereochemistry playing a particularly important role in distinguishing their structure and function. Monosaccharide building blocks are defined by a high density of chiral centers. Additionally, the anomericity and regiochemistry of the glycosidic linkages carry important biological information.

The carbohydrate sequence markup language (CabosML): an XML description of carbohydrate structures [PDF]
Bioinformatics, 2004 Bioinformatics resources for glycomics are very poor as compared with those for genomics and proteomics. The complexity of carbohydrate sequences makes it difficult to define a common language to represent them, and the development of bioinformatics tools for glycomics has not progressed.

Molecules, 2022 Acetylated glucuronoxylan is one of the most common types of hemicellulose in nature. The structure is formed by a β-(1→4)-linked D-xylopyranosyl (Xylp) backbone that can be substituted with an acetyl group at O-2 and O-3 positions, and α-(1→2)-linked 4 ...

Carbohydrate sequence of a soybean 7S protein.
Agricultural and Biological Chemistry, 1979 The sequences of three Asn-carbohydrates, IIa, Asn(GlcNAc)2-(Man)9; IIb, Asn(GlcNAc)2(Man)8; and IIc, Asn(GlcNAc)2(Man)7 isolated from the pronase digest of a 7S soybean protein (β-conglycinin) were investigated. In each case, methylation analysis of the Asn-carbohydrates gave 3, 6-di-O-methyl derivative from the N-acetyl-glucosamine residue, and 2, 3,

Structural similarity of the terminal carbohydrate sequences of glycoproteins and glycolipids [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1979 The carbohydrate chains of animal cell membranes are covalently lmked to either protein or lipid. Both glycoproteins and glycohprds are asymmetrically onented m cell membranes, with then saccharide chains projecting outwards from the membrane [ 13. The carbohydrate chains of both classes of glycocomugates have been suggested to be involved in many cell

Galectins: a key intersection between glycobiology and immunology
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1999 Galectins are a family of evolutionarily conserved animal lectins, widely distributed from lower invertebrates to mammals. They share sequence and structure similarities in the carbohydrate recognition domain and specificity for polylactosamine-enriched ...
