Synthesis of Tn and sialyl Tn antigen-lipid A analog conjugates for synthetic vaccines

Chem Pharm Bull (Tokyo). 1997 Sep;45(9):1544-6. doi: 10.1248/cpb.45.1544.

Abstract

Conjugates of Tn and sialyl Tn antigen with N-teradecanoyl L-seryl-beta-alanine-containing D-glucosamine derivatives structurally related to lipid A as an immunoadjuvant were synthesized for the development of totally synthetic vaccines against cancers or HIV.
