| Chondroitin sulfate (CS) is a kind of Glycosaminoglycan covalently linked to protein to form Proteoglycan. Chondroitin sulfate is widely distributed in the extracellular matrix and cell surface of animal tissues. The sugar chain is polymerized by alternating Glucuronic acid and N-Acetylgalactosamine, and is connected to the serine residue of the core protein through a sugar like link region. Although the main chain structure of the polysaccharide is not complex, it shows a high degree of heterogeneity in terms of the degree of sulfation, the distribution of sulfate groups and the two differences into the isomeric Uronic acid chains. The Fine structure of Chondroitin sulfate determines the functional specificity and interaction with a variety of protein molecules. | ||
