Chondroitin sulfates (CS) are ubiquitous components of extracellular matrices of all connective tissues such as the artery and tendon and exhibit a variety of biological functions. They are linear copolymers made up of dimeric units composed of glucuronic acid and N-acetyl galactosamine. The first biological investigation... 

Figure 12.15 Gangliosides. The prefix mono-, di, tri- or tetra- denotes the number of sialic acid W-acetyl neuraminic acid, NANA) residues present in the molecule. The many different gangliosides have complex structures and for convenience shorthand notations are used. The two commonest were introduced by Svennerholm, who named the parent compound GM1, and Wiegnandt, who named it Ggnti. The latter system gives enough information for the structures to be worked out from the shorthand form once the symbols have been learnt. GalNAc represents N-acetyl galactosamine in the above structure.

As described earlier in Section IV.A., several of the carbohydrate sequences that serve as receptors for enteric pathogens have been identified. For EPEC, these receptors are located on the surface of host epithelial cells and are often comprised of galactose, N-acetyl-galactosamine, lactosyl...

The genetic basis for the ABO blood groups is well understood. There are three alleles, variants of a gene, that encodes a glycosyltransferase. In A type individuals, this enzyme transfers N-acetyl-galactosamine from a carrier molecule, called UDP...
