Front Cover: Synthesis of a Fluorinated Sialophorin Hexasaccharide–Threonine Conjugate for Fmoc Solid‐Phase Glycopeptide Synthesis (Eur. J. Org. Chem. 22/2016)
Abstract:The cover picture shows in the background a snapshot of the beautiful landscape around Wallberg peak in the Mangfall mountain range near Munich (Bavarian Alps). It symbolizes the strenuous efforts required for the synthesis of complex carbohydrate‐based antigens and the journey towards the development of effective glycoconjugate vaccines. The first total synthesis of fluorinated hexasaccharide–threonine conjugates enables antigen mimics of sialophorin glycoprotein fragments to become accessible for biological … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
