The chondroitin sulfate (CS) disaccharide building blocks and their naming conventions: (A) the ΔUA_NRE library of oligosaccharides (di- to hexasaccharide) has an unsaturated uronic acid residue at the non-reducing end (NRE) and a GalNp residue at the reducing end; (B) the GlcA_NRE library has a GlcAp residue at the NRE, and (C) the GalN_NRE library has a GalNp residue at the NRE; (D) the list of monomer residues and the R₁, R₂, and R₃ variations for ΔUAp, GlcAp, and GalNp considered in this study. These variations lead to 24 disaccharide building blocks.
