Cryogenic Infrared Spectroscopy Reveals Structural Modularity in the Vibrational Fingerprints of Heparan Sulfate Diastereomers (2020)
Journal Article
Lettow, M., Grabarics, M., Greis, K., Mucha, E., Thomas, D. A., Chopra, P., …Pagel, K. (2020). Cryogenic Infrared Spectroscopy Reveals Structural Modularity in the Vibrational Fingerprints of Heparan Sulfate Diastereomers. Analytical Chemistry, 92(15), 10228-10232. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.analchem.0c02048

Heparan sulfate and heparin are highly acidic polysaccharides with a linear sequence, consisting of alternating glucosamine and hexuronic acid building blocks. The identity of hexuronic acid units shows a variability along their sequence, as d-glucur...
