Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on principles for multivalent ligand design.
Multivalent interactions control a wide variety of cellular processes including cell surface …

The plasma membrane of cells contains a diverse array of lipids that provide important
structural and biological features. Glycolipids are typically a minor component of the cell …

Structural modifications of trivalent cluster mannosides are presented to further elucidate the
ligand preferences of the type-1 fimbrial lectin of Escherichia coli. Two types of variations are …

This chapter describes several classes of model systems that have been used for studies of
polyvalent binding interactions between carbohydrates and proteins. This review is divided …

Carbohydrates are the most abundant group of natural products and the role of sugars as
energy and biosynthetic resources (glycolysis, pentose phosphate cycle, etc.),'energy …

The high affinity interaction between P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) and P-
selectin is mediated by a multimotif glycosulfopeptide (GSP) recognition domain consisting …

During adhesion events in eukaryotic cells polyvalent carbohydrate–carbohydrate
recognition between LeX oligosaccharides plays a role. Clustering was mimicked by a …

The development of efficient, fast, flexible and general synthetic routes to glycopolymers is
an ongoing challenge and much progress has been made in recent years. Chemical …

Solid-supported membrane multilayers doped with membrane-anchored oligosaccharides
bearing the LewisX motif (Le X lipid) were utilized as a model system of membrane …
