Monovalent and bivalent N-fucosyl amides as high affinity ligands for Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA-IIL lectin
TL;DR: Four monovalent and one divalent alpha-fucosyl amides have been tested for their affinity for a fucose-binding lectin from Pseudomonas aeruginosa and demonstrated that they bind to the lectin in the micromolar range, with highest affinity for the divalent ligand.
