x-H-y: x represents the approximate distance between the adjacent glutamic acids, H represents helical conformation, and y represents the number of repeats of the monomeric peptide sequence.

The given molecular weight of polypeptides are theoretical; purified polypeptides show these expected masses in MALDI-TOF analysis.

Cap x-H-y represents the N-(ϵ-aminocaproyl)-β-D-galactosylamine-functionalized glutamic acid residues in the glycopolypeptides.
