Main Chain |
β-1,4-linked D-glucose repeating units |
Side Chain |
Trisaccharide sidechains at every other glucose unit at C-3, consisting of (1,4)-β-D-glucuronic acid unit sandwiched between a-1,2-D-mannose with an acetyl group attached to C-6 and β-D-mannose. The terminal mannose residues are usually pyruvated. |
