A bivalent glycopeptide to target two putative carbohydrate binding sites on FimH

FimH is a mannose-specific bacterial lectin found on type 1 fimbriae with a monovalent carbohydrate recognition domain (CRD) that is known from X-ray studies. However, binding studies with multivalent ligands have suggested an additional carbohydrate-binding site on this protein. In order to prove t...
