In the present study, we chemically synthesized Galbeta1-4Fuc and Galbeta1-3Fuc labeled with 2-aminopyridine (PA) and demonstrated that LEC-6 interacts with PA-Galbeta1-4Fuc more strongly than PA-Galbeta1-3Fuc by frontal affinity chromatography (FAC). |

Sentence |
denotes |
These results suggest that Galbeta1-4Fuc is the endogenous unit structure recognized by C. elegans galectins, which implies that C. elegans glycans and galectins may have co-evolved through an alteration in the structures of C. elegans glycans and a subsequent conversion in the sugar-binding mechanism of galectins. |
