Monoclonal antibodies that recognize plant cell wall glycans are used for high-resolution imaging, providing important information about the structure and function of cell wall polysaccharides. To characterize the binding epitopes of these powerful molecular probes a library of eleven plant arabinoxylan oligosaccharides was produced by automated solid-phase synthesis. Modular assembly of oligoarabinoxylans from few building blocks was enabled by adding (2-naphthyl)methyl (Nap) to the toolbox of orthogonal protecting groups for solid-phase synthesis. Conjugation-ready oligosaccharides were obtained and the binding specificities of xylan-directed antibodies were determined on microarrays. Automated synthesis meets plant research: Automated synthesis of plant oligosaccharides provides molecular tools for the characterization of important biological probes in plant research. The binding specificities of a collection of xylan-directed monoclonal antibodies have been determined by means of carbohydrate microarrays equipped with synthetic arabinoxylan fragments (see figure).

Adaptation of the Mukaiyama-Nicolaou protocol to the coupling of a monounprotected thioglycoside to a glycosyl fluoride is capable of delivering the unusual disaccharide present in the title toxin.
