Keratan sulfates functions

Characteristically, the a-isoprene unit is saturated, unlike bacterial undecaprenol, in which it is unsaturated, The dolichol mono- and di-phosphoric esters function as glycosylated intermediates2 in the synthesis of glycoproteins, keratan sulfate, cellulose, and yeast mannan, and that is why they are discussed here. [Pg.289]

Figure 9.14 Proteoglycan aggregate found in cartilage. C and N are C and N termini of the core protein. Long wavy lines represent chondroitin sulfate, whereas the short lines represent keratan sulfate. All are linkied to the core protein via the O-serine linkage, except for a few oligosaccharide chains near the N terminus of the core protein. LP is link protein, and HA is hyaluronic acid.
