| Main Chain |
The backbone of the polysaccharide is made up by repeating disaccharide units of alternating α-D-glucuronic acid (GlcA) and N-acetyl-β-D-galactosamine (GalNAc), the same sequence as mammalian chondroitin sulfate. |
| Side Chain |
In the case of the sea cucumber chondroitin sulfate, the α-D-glucuronic acid residues bear different sulfated fucose branches at its 3-O-position. |
