Associations of like and unlike polysaccharides: Mechanism and specificity in galactomannans, interacting bacterial polysaccharides, and related systems
TL;DR: Native xanthan shows marked specificity in its interactions with plant glycans, indicating a possible biological role in host-pathogen recognition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Secondary and Tertiary Structure of Polysaccharides in Solutions and Gels
David A. Rees,E. Jane Welsh +1 more
TL;DR: For several polysaccharides there is evidence that the mechanism of biological control over the fine topology and properties of the gel network is mediated by enzymes which modify sugar residues at the polymer level to change the pattern of “interrupting” sugar residues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solution Conformation of Glycosaminoglycans: Assignment of the 300‐MHz 1H‐Magnetic Resonance Spectra of Chondroitin 4‐Sulphate, Chondroitin 6‐Sulphate and Hyaluronate, and Investigation of an Alkali‐Induced Conformation Change
TL;DR: Comparison of the spectra of hyaluronate, chondroitin sulphates, and the model glycosides indicates that proton chemical shifts are sensitive to the conformation differences between the polysaccharides in alkaline solution, but do not detect the differences in neutral solution that are known from NMR relaxation to be present.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conformation and intermolecular interactions of carbohydrate chains
Journal ArticleDOI
Relation between primary structure and chain flexibility of random coil polysaccharides: calculation and experiment for a range of model carrageenans
TL;DR: In this paper, a series of carrageenans was derived from the same alternating copolymeric backbone by controlled chemical intoduction of 3,6-anhydro-D-galactose 2-sulphate residues in place of D-Galactose 4-1 chair conformation joined by flexible linkages.
