A novel ligand conjugate which is effectively utilizable for analyzing a function of a protein; a ligand-supporting object; and a method of analyzing a protein. An aspect of the present invention provides a ligand conjugate having a linker compound and a sugar, the linker compound having a structure represented by General Formula (1): (see formula 1) where p and q are independently integers of not less than 0 but not more than 6, in which X is a structure comprising one, two, or three hydrocarbon derivative chains which have an aromatic amino group at an end and may have a carbon-nitrogen bond in a main chain, Y is a sulfur atom or a hydrocarbon structure containing a sulfur atom, and Z is a straight-chain structure comprising a carbon-carbon bond or carbon-oxygen bond, the sugar chain being selected from group (101). The sugar having a reducing end and being bonded to the linker compound through the aromatic amino group. |
