TLDR
Periodate oxidation of terminalN-acetyl- andN-glycoloylneuraminic acid residues in the mucins from edible bird nest substance and pig submandibular gland can be carried out under conditions which exclusively give rise to the formation of the C-7 analogues of these sialic acids.
Abstract
Periodate oxidation of terminalN-acetyl- andN-glycoloylneuraminic acid residues in the mucins from edible bird nest substance and pig submandibular gland, respectively, can be carried out under conditions which exclusively give rise to the formation of the C-7 analogues of these sialic acids. In contrast, the C-8 compounds can be obtained in a maximum yield of about 40%. Under identical conditions,N-glycoloylneuraminic acid is oxidized about 1.5 times faster than theN-acetylated derivative. After release of the sialic acids by acid hydrolysis, the characterization of the oxidation products was carried out by TLC, by GLC and GLC-MS of the corresponding pertrimethylsilyl derivatives, and by 500-MHz1H-NMR spectroscopy. In addition, molar response factors for GLC analysis and extinction coefficients in the orcinol/Fe3+/HCl assay were determined.

Structural analysis of a novel sialic-acid-containing trisaccharide from Rhodobacter capsulatus 37b4 lipopolysaccharide

TL;DR: Sialic-acid-containing lipopolysaccharides from Rhodobacter capsulatus 37b4, KB-1 and Sp 18 were investigated for the linkage and substitution of sialic acids and revealed the presence of the disaccharide Gal1-6Glc at the non-reducing end, probably with an alpha-anomeric configuration of the galactose residue.

Isobaric Labeling of Intact Gangliosides toward Multiplexed LC–MS/MS-Based Quantitative Analysis

TL;DR: This paper carried out the rapid, chemoselective oxidation of sialic acid side chain in common ganglioside core structures using NaIO4 followed by ligation with a carbonyl-reactive isobaric tandem mass tag (TMT) reagent and subsequent RPLC-MS/MS analysis and obtained overall sample-to-sample precision of <12% RSD and mean error of <10%.

Modulating the Bioactivity of Mucin Hydrogels with Crosslinking Architecture

TL;DR: It is shown that bovine submaxillary mucins, a highly glycosylated and immune‐modulating protein, exhibit strikingly different bioactivities whether they are crosslinked through their glycans or their protein domains.
