O-glycans Expand Lubricin and Attenuate its Viscosity and Shear Thinning
Saber Boushehri, Hannes Holey, Matthias Brosz…·Frauke Gräter
This study uses molecular dynamics simulations to show that O-glycans in lubricin increase its conformational extension, reduce viscosity, but weaken shear thinning at high shear rates.
