Properties
Description
The fucoidan-CHO conjugate (also called aldehyde-fucoidan) links an aldehyde group to fucoidan, a sulfated algal polysaccharide, forming a conjugate that could be useful in various investigations.
Glycan Structure
The glycan structure of fucoidan primarily consists of α-(1→3)- or α-(1→4)-linked L-fucose residues with sulfate groups at C-2/C-4 positions, often interspersed with branching points and occasional substitutions by other monosaccharides like galactose or xylose.
