Sialic acids determine the biological stability, structure, surface charge, and some receptor functions of cells. For the anchorage of sialic acid to glycans, the presence of the subterminal galactose is necessary, because only through this component can it become part of the cell surface.

Other common monosaccharides include fructose and galactose. ... To make lactose, that –OH on C-1 of the galactose has to bond to the “down” or –OH on C-4 of the glucose. In order to do dehydration synthesis and bond together, the glucose has to flip over upside down so the two –OH groups are side-by-side,
