Definition: Heteropolysaccharides which contain an N-acetylated hexosamine in a characteristic repeating disaccharide unit. The repeating structure of each disaccharide involves alternate 1,4- and 1,3-linkages consisting of either N-acetylglucosamine or N-acetylgalactosamine.  polysaccharides; note X ref   
Examples Chondroitin; Heparin; Heparitin Sulfate; Hyaluronic Acid; Keratan Sulfate 		Other names Mucopolysaccharides
