Section Iii Release of Saccharides from Glycoconjugates
نویسنده
چکیده
In many instances, it is useful to release a part or all of the oligosaccharide chains from a glycoconjugate before analyzing their structure, and the units presented in this section describe a variety of ways in which this can be achieved. Some of the methods described here (particularly the enzymatic ones) can also be applied to the study of free oligosaccharides or to oligosaccharides that are still attached to macromolecules.

Hydrogel glycan microarrays.
The technology of hydrogel microchips manufacturing, which was developed previously for covalent immobilization of DNA and proteins, was applied for the preparation of glycochips and combined glyco/protein chips. Microchips consist of hydrogel drops separated with hydrophobic surface. Spacered amino-saccharides and polyacrylamide glycoconjugates were used for immobilization. Gel elements were a...
متن کاملThermal aggregation of egg white proteins as affected by saccharides
Thermal characteristics of egg white proteins (EWP) may differ in the presence of saccharides. Therefore, the influence of saccharides including carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), pectin, sucrose and maltodextrin and heating time on physicochemical characteristics of EWP as a whole were studied. Investigation of Heat Coagulation Time (HCT), solubility, turbidity and protein secondary structure of h...

A novel type of N-glycoside linkage, Asn-Glc, has recently been described {Wieland et a l , 1983), which occurs in the cell surface glycoprotein of the archaebacterium Halobacterium balobium. Sulfated oligosaccharides containing glucuronic acid (and, within some of the oligosaccharides, iduronic acid) are bound via a glucose residue to Asn residues in the cell surface glycoprotein. Lipid-linked...
متن کاملDevelopmental Changes of the Notochord and its Inductive Effects on the Adjacent Embryonic Germ Layers with Regard to the Role of Glycoconjugates
Notochord is an axial structure derived of embryonic mesoderm and in addition to structural supporting role in inducing nearby germinal layers, it has a basic role in formation of organs such as vertebral column, axial vessels, neural tube and primitive gut. This organ undergoes essential changes during the development process. First, arises from the primitive node and terms notochordal process...
متن کاملOligOsaCCharides and glyCOCOnjugates in reCOgnitiOn PrOCesses
All cells, eukaryotic cells in particular, are covered with carbohydrates of enormous diversity. These are part of different glycoconjugates, which are embedded into the lipid bilayer of the plasma membrane or associated to the glycocalyx of the cell. The glycocalyx is a highly complex sugar coating, which is typical and important for every eukaryotic cell. It can be considered to form an inter...
