Properties
Description
Fucoidan-dopamine conjugate (also called dopamine-fucoidan) merges dopamine with fucoidan, a sulfated algal polysaccharide, forming a hybrid structure that could be useful in various studies.
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.
