Definition
monosaccharide residue that is the remaining portion of sialic acid after formation of a glycosidic bond
Examples
- Sialic acid residue at the terminal position of a complex N-linked glycan; Sialic acid residue attached to a galactose residue in a glycoprotein glycan; N-acetylneuraminic acid residue in a sialylated monoclonal antibody 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
Formal Axioms
First-Order Logic Axioms
SialicAcidResidue(x) → MonosaccharideResidue(x)
Semi-Formal Natural Language Axioms
if x is a ‘sialic acid residue’ then x is a ‘monosaccharide residue’
