Conformational behavior of hyaluronan in relation to its physical properties as probed by molecular modeling.

abstract：:Since plants are emerging as an important system for the expression of recombinant glycoproteins, especially those intended for therapeutic purposes, it is important to scrutinize to what extent glycans harbored by mammalian glycoproteins produced in transgenic plants differ from their natural counterpart. We report h...
