Properties
Description
Polyarginine-chondroitin sulfate gene delivery vector balances positive charge density with chondroitin's anionic character to optimize nanoparticle formation and transfection efficiency.
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→67 linked)
