Properties
Description
NTA-xylan conjugation produces a nitrilotriacetic acid hybrid combining metal chelation properties with xylan's β-1,4-xylose framework. The system enhances histidine-tagged protein binding capacity through nickel coordination.
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.
