Chondroitin Sulfate A
It is a polymer of disaccharide of N-acetyle d-galactosamine and d-glucuronic acid
The sulfate residues are present on C4 of N-acetyle d-galactosamine
It is found in cartilages, cornea, and bones
Chondroitin Sulfate B
It is a polymer of disaccharide of N-acetyle d-galactosamine and L-iduronic acid
d-Glucuronic acid undergoes epimerization into L-iduronic acid in chondroitin sulfate B
The sulfate residues are present on C4 of N-acetyl d-galactosamine
It is found in human skin, heart valves, blood vessels, lungs, and tendons. Also called as “dermatan sulfate” due to its presence in the skin. It shows weak anticoagulant property and is also called as “beta-heparin”.
Chondroitin Sulfate C
It is a polymer of disaccharide of N-acetyle d-galactosamine and d-glucuronic acid
It resenbles each other with CS A except the position of sulfate residues
The sulfate residues are present on C6 of N-acetyle d-galactosamine
It is found in tendons and cartilages
Chondroitin Sulfate D
It is a polymer of disaccharide of N-acetyle d-galactosamine and d-glucuronic acid
The sulfat residues are present on C6 of N-acetyle d-galactosamine and C2 of d-glucuronic acid
It is found in shark cartilage
