Descriptor English: Oligosaccharides, Branched-Chain
Descriptor Spanish: Oligosacáridos de Cadena Ramificada
Descriptor oligosacáridos de cadena ramificada
Scope note: Oligosacáridos que contienen varios tipos de enlaces glicosídicos que dan lugar a ramificaciones o antenas. El número de antenas (como bi, tri, tetra o penta-antenarios) en los oligosacáridos de los PROTEOGLICANOS, GLICOPROTEÍNAS o LIPOPOLISACÁRIDOS contribuye a sus actividades biológicas, tales como unión a receptores y metabolismo.

Scope note: Oligosaccharides containing various types of glycosidic linkages that yield branching or antennae. The number of antennae (such as bi-, tri-, tetra-, or penta-antennary) in the oligosaccharides on the PROTEOGLYCANS; GLYCOPROTEINS; or LIPOPOLYSACCHARIDES contribute to their biological activities, such as receptor binding and metabolism.
