MeSH

Oligosaccharides containing two monosaccharide units linked by a glycosidic bond.

An enzyme that catalyzes the eliminative degradation of polysaccharides containing 1,4-beta-D-hexosaminyl and 1,3-beta-D-glucuronosyl or 1,3-alpha-L-iduronosyl linkages to disaccharides containing 4-deoxy-beta-D-gluc-4-enuronosyl groups. (Enzyme Nomenclature, 1992)

Year introduced: 1998

Carbohydrates consisting of between two (DISACCHARIDES) and ten MONOSACCHARIDES connected by either an alpha- or beta-glycosidic link. They are found throughout nature in both the free and bound form.

Compounds consisting of glucosamine and lactate joined by an ether linkage. They occur naturally as N-acetyl derivatives in peptidoglycan, the characteristic polysaccharide composing bacterial cell walls. (From Dorland, 28th ed)

Year introduced: 1991(1975)

A disaccharide consisting of one galactose and one glucose moiety in an alpha (1-6) glycosidic linkage.

Year introduced: 1991(1979)

A disaccharide consisting of two glucose units in an alpha (1-6) glycosidic linkage.

Year introduced: 1991(1979)

Enzymes belonging to the class of GLYCOSIDE HYDROLASES which break down DISACCHARIDES into simpler sugars, MONOSACCHARIDES.

Year introduced: 1974

A disaccharide consisting of two glucose units in beta (1-4) glycosidic linkage. Obtained from the partial hydrolysis of cellulose.

Year introduced: 1991(1979)

sweetener produced via enzymatic conversion of sucrose and maltose to a mixture of fructose, leucrose (Disaccharides) and gluco-oligosaccharides

Date introduced: November 29, 2007

an extracellular sulfatase which is a candidate developmental regulator of heparan sulfate proteoglycan sulfation in embryonic progenitor lineages. It has an enzymatic domain which functions in the lysosomal degradation of heparan sulfate. It is a heparan sulfate-specific 6-0 endosulfatase with a high degree of substrate specificity for 6-O-sulfated disaccharides of HS chains of HSPG.

the high-affinity heparan sulfate fraction of orgaran (ORG 10172); has high affinity for antithrombin; has a high content of tri- and di-sulfated disaccharides; associated with antithrombin III

Date introduced: December 2, 1994

produces disulfated, N-sulfated and N-acetylated, 6-sulfated disaccharides from heparan sulfate

Date introduced: November 24, 1993
