Application

6′-Sialyllactose is a compound wherein the acetylneuraminyl (NANA) unit is connected to the galactosyl unit of lactose at the 6 position. In 3′-sialylactose, this connection is at the 3 position. 3′-Sialyllactose and 6′-Sialyllactose are used to differentiate and characterize binding domains of viruses, such as influenza and rhinitis viruses, that recognize NANA capped cell surface receptors. 3′-Sialyllactose and 6′-sialylactose are used as reference compounds in analytical methods developed to measure their presence in materials such as milk and colostrums.

Human influenza viruses preferentially bind to sialic acid-α2,6-galactose (SAα2,6Gal) receptors, which are predominant in human upper respiratory epithelia, whereas avian influenza viruses preferentially bind to SAα2,3Gal receptors. However, variants with amino acid substitutions around the receptor-binding sites of the hemagglutinin

Review of O-Linked Glycoproteins

O-Linked glycoproteins are usually large proteins with a molecular mass of >200 kDa. Glycosylation generally occurs in high-density clusters and may represent as much as 50-80% of the overall mass.
