Abstract

TR-NOE experiments have been used to characterise the bound conformation of oligosaccharide and synthetic analogues to different carbohydrate binding proteins. In particular, the bioactive conformations of lactose, C-lactose, and N-acetyl glucosamine-containing oligosaccharides when bound to Ricin, E. coli β-galactosidase and hevein is presented.
