Cooperation is key : Peptide and saccharide portions cooperate in sialyl Lewis x glycopeptides and their mimetics in the fucose and sialic acid parts (see formula), resulting in up to greater than 100‐fold stronger binding to E‐selectin. The synthesis provided sialyl Lewis x amino acids in a form sufficiently acid‐stable for application in automated solid‐phase syntheses of glycopeptides based on acid‐sensitive linkers.
