  1. The rm of each individual glycan was determined based on the gel images in Fig. 2, where the relative mobility of FA2 was arbitrarily set to 0 and that of FA2G2S(6)2 was set to 1. The contribution of a monosaccharide to the mobility was calculated based on the difference in the mobility of a pair of glycans that differed only by the monosaccharide. A minus number indicates that the monosaccharide slows down the mobility and a positive number indicates that the monosaccharide makes the mobility faster.
