Properties
Description
Glycine-xylan conjugation represents the simplest amino acid-polysaccharide hybrid combining flexible backbone properties with xylan's β-1,4-linked xylose network. The system demonstrates improved solubility through minimal steric hindrance.
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.
