additional information a capsular polysaccharide from Escherichia coli K5, with the same (-GlcUA-(beta-1,4)-GlcNAc-(alpha-1,4)-)n structure as the unmodified backbone of heparan sulfate, resists heparanase degradation in its native state as well as after chemical N-deacetylation/N-sulfation or partial enzymatic C-5 epimerization of beta-D-GlcUA to alpha-L-idopyranuronic acid. By contrast, a chemically O-sulfated (but still N-acetylated) K5 derivative is susceptible to heparanase cleavage. O-Sulfate groups, but not N-sulfate or alpha-L-idopyranuronic acid residues are essential for substrate recognition by the heparanase. Selective O-desulfation of the heparin octasaccharide implicates a 2-O-sulfate group on a hexuronic acid residue located two monosaccharide units from the cleavage site, toward the reducing end Homo sapiens ?
