Definition
monosaccharide residue that is the remaining portion of galactose after formation of a glycosidic bond
Examples
- Galactose residue in a complex N-linked glycan; Galactose residue attached to N-acetylglucosamine in a monoclonal antibody Fc glycan; Terminal galactose residue in a biantennary glycan.
Primitive Class
This class is declared primitive and it does not have necessary and sufficient condiftions defined.
Primitive Rationale
This term is expected to remain primitive as the detailed treatment of chemical bonds, structure and formation is outside of the current scope of IOF. Other biological and chemical ontologies should be used for these purposes
