Properties
Description
Mesylate-derivatized chondroitin sulfate (mesylate-CS) introduces methyl sulfonate groups as leaving moieties, enabling nucleophilic substitution reactions for versatile functionalization.
Glycan Name
Chondroitin sulfate
Glycan Structure
The glycan structure of chondroitin sulfate (CS) is a sulfated glycosaminoglycan (GAG) composed of repeating disaccharide units. Each unit consists of:
N-acetyl-D-galactosamine (GalNAc) (β1→4 linked)
D-glucuronic acid (GlcA) (β1→112 linked)
Source
