Improved non-covalent biofunctionalization of multi-walled carbon nanotubes using carbohydrate amphiphiles with a butterfly-like polyaromatic tail
(Springer, 2010)
We have developed an efficient strategy for the non-covalent functionalization of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) which allows a biomimetic presentation of carbohydrates on their surface by π-π stacking interactions. ...

Mannosyl-coated nanocomplexes from amphiphilic cyclodextrins and pDNA for site-specific gene delivery
(Elsevier, 2011-10)
Fully homogeneous facial amphiphiles consisting in a cyclodextrin (CD) platform onto which a polycationic cluster and a multi-tail hydrophobic moiety have been installed (polycationic amphiphilic CDs; paCDs) self-organized ...

Toward a Suitable Structural Analysis of Gene Delivery Carrier Based on Polycationic Carbohydrates by Electron Transfer Dissociation Tandem Mass Spectrometry
(Elsevier, 2016)
Polycationic carbohydrates represent an attractive class of biomolecules for several applications and particularly as non viral gene delivery vectors. In this case, the establishment of structure-biological activity ...

Experimental Measurement of Carbohydrate–Aromatic Stacking in Water by Using a Dangling-Ended DNA Model System
(Wiley-VCH, 2008)
Protein–carbohydrate recognition is of fundamental importance for a large number of biological processes; carbohydrate–aromatic stacking is a widespread, but poorly understood, structural motif in this recognition. We ...

Synthesis of Chondroitin Sulfate Oligosaccharides Using N-(Tetrachlorophthaloyl)- and N-(Trifluoroacetyl)galactosamine Building Blocks
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014)
We have explored synthetic routes for the preparation of chondroitin sulfate (CS) oligosaccharides based on the use of N-tetrachlorophthaloyl- (N-TCP) and N-trifluoroacetyl-substituted (N-TFA) galactosamine building blocks. ...

NMR studies on carbohydrate interactions with DC-SIGN towards a quantitative STD analysis
(De Gruyter, 2013)
The recent introduction of saturation transfer difference (STD) NMR has increased the tools for the study of protein–carbohydrate complexes. This is useful when it is combined with transfer nuclear Overhauser enhancement ...

Differential effects of carbohydrates on arabidopsis pollen germination
(Oxford University Press, 2017)
Pollen germination as a crucial process in plant development strongly depends on the accessibility of carbon as energy source. Carbohydrates, however, function not only as a primary energy source, but also as important ...

Synthesis of hyaluronic acid oligosaccharides and exploration of a fluorous-assisted approach
(Elsevier, 2014)
The synthesis of hyaluronic acid oligomers (tri- and tetrasaccharide) is described. We have followed a pre-glycosylation oxidation strategy. Glucuronic acid units were directly employed in coupling reactions with suitably ...
