Abstract

Glyco-amino acids and glycopeptides having three-dimensionally stable configurations are described. These glyco-amino acids and glycopeptides have glycoside functional groups, such as fucose and analogues and derivatives thereof, covalently bound to an amino acid or peptide having a free carboxylic group or sulfate group in an orientation that facilitates the binding between these groups and selectin receptors. The present glyco-amino acids and glycopeptides may be used in the treatment of selectin-mediated disorders, such as inflammation, autoimmune disease and cancer.
