Popis: An anti-candidiasis glycoconjugate vaccine was prepared via a tyrosine-selective alkynylation and a click chemistry mediated glycoconjugation sequence. It features a well-defined glycan, protein carrier, and connectivity. The construct, although with significantly lower carbohydrate loading and a shorter β-(1,3) glucan chain than the well-established anti-candidiasis vaccine derived from the random conjugation of laminarin at lysines, elicited a comparable level of specific IgG antibodies.
