Properties
Description
Maleimide-xylan conjugation produces a dienophile-containing hybrid combining thiol-specific reactivity with xylan's β-1,4-xylose scaffold. This composite benefits from efficient sulfhydryl coupling capacity.
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.
