Popis: The linkage region, GlcNAcβAsn, is conserved in all eukaryotic N-glycoproteins. As a logical extension of a research endeavor aimed at understanding the structural significance of GlcNAc and Asn as the linkage region constituents, the newer analogs GlcNAcβNHBu and (GlcNAcβ(1–4)GlcNAc)alkanamides have been synthesized to assess the influence of aglycon as well as additional GlcNAc on the linkage region. X-ray crystallographic analysis of the GlcNAcβNHBu and (GlcNAcβ(1–4)GlcNAc)βNHBu is described. Comparative analysis of these structures with those of reported models and analogs shows that the deviation in N-glycosidic torsion, ϕN among the GlcNAc alkanamides is negligible (
