Journal Article
Baráth, M., Hansen, S. U., Dalton, C. E., Jayson, G. C., Miller, G. J., & Gardiner, J. M. (2015). Modular Synthesis of Heparin-Related Tetra-, Hexa- and Octasaccharides with Differential O-6 Protections: Programming for Regiodefined 6-O-Modifications. Molecules, 20(4), 6167 - 6180. https://doi.org/10.3390/molecules20046167

Heparin and heparan sulphate (H/HS) are important members of the glycosaminoglycan family of sugars that regulate a substantial number of biological processes. Such biological promiscuity is underpinned by hetereogeneity in their molecular structure....
