Specific sulfation and glycosylation - a structural combination for the anticoagulation of marine carbohydrates

Based on considered achievements of the last 25 years, specific combinations of sulfation patterns and glycosylation types have been proved to be key structural players for the anticoagulant activity of certain marine glycans. These conclusions were obtained from comparative and systematic analyses...
