Fig. 6

a Extracted ions chromatogram and structures of the most abundant O-glycans (>0.1% relative concentration) of bovine submaxillary mucin (BSM) released with neutralized hypochlorite at pH 6.8 (n = 1). Ser and Thr refer to the conjugated amino acid in bovin submaxillary mucin. After release, the O-glycan previously conjugated to Ser is detected as a glycolic acid glycoside and to Thr as a lactic acid glycoside. b ATDs and CCS of O-acetylated Neu5Ac B1 ion of selected O-glycan structures of BSM (n = 1). ATD in blue. Left dashed line corresponds to the B1 ion from the 7-O-acetylated Neu5Ac standard. Right dashed line corresponds to the B1 ion from 9-O-acetylated Neu5Ac standard. c Stacked ATDs and CCS of B1 ions from di-O-acetylated Neu5Ac of BSM. Dashed line corresponds to the B1 ion from the 7,9-di-O-acetylated Neu5Ac standard.
