Properties
Description
Chondroitin sulfate-ornithine (also termed Orn-chondroitin sulfate) represents a synthetic conjugate where chondroitin sulfate is chemically bonded to Orn, combining the natural therapeutic properties of chondroitin with Orn's adaptable molecular features for enhanced functionality.
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→3 linked)
