Abstract
The strong dependence of the NOE on the molecular mobility rendered the weak bond of a homotypical carbohydrate-carbohydrate recognition detectable in a simplified model system. The membrane-bound LeX trisaccharide 1, which functions as a receptor, transiently binds the dissolved LeX trisaccharide 2, thus slowing down its rotational diffusion. This kind of molecular recognition plays an important part in cell adhesion. © 1999 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH, Weinheim, Fed. Rep. of Germany.Entities:
