Abstract
Gold simplifies matters: Gold manno-glyconanoparticles displaying different densities of linear and branched mannose oligosaccharides acted as inhibitors of DC-SIGN-mediated HIV trans-infection of human activated peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Presentation of simple linear di-, tri-, and tetraoligosaccharides on the nanoclusters resulted in efficiencies similar to those observed for complex branched penta- and heptamannosides.
