title: In vitro evaluation of synthetic heparin-like conjugates comprising different thrombin binding domains.
abstract: The syntheses of several heparin-like glycoconjugates (i.e., 16a-f) containing identical AT III binding domains (ABD) and spacers but different thrombin binding domains (TBDs) are described. Biological activities of conjugates 16a-f indicate that the thrombin inhibitory activity is mainly determined by the charge density of the TBD moiety.
