Synthesis of a mimic for the heterogeneous surface of core 2 sialoglycan-linked glycoprotein

Org Lett. 2004 Sep 2;6(18):3135-8. doi: 10.1021/ol048827b.

Abstract

[structure: see text] An O-glycosylated peptide carrying two core 2 sialopentasaccharides of different glycoform was synthesized as a model of the heterogeneous surface of mucin glycoprotein. Solid-phase synthesis and the subsequent enzymatic sialylation gave two segments, which were coupled by selective thioester activation to produce the title compound.
