Glycans are important complex carbohydrates found on cell surfaces that serve crucial roles in cell-to-cell communication, ...

As part of a $3.7 million National Institutes of Health-funded project, Distinguished Professor Carlito Lebrilla and colleagues are building a library of biomarkers associated with specific ...

Medical biochemistry traditionally centres on the molecular constituents of life – from nucleic acids and proteins to lipids and carbohydrates – underpinning our understanding of cellular processes in ...

“The most important figure in the development of carbohydrate synthesis using enzymatic catalysis and a major contributor to glycobiology”—that’s the way chemistry professor George M. Whitesides of ...

With the background on the structure and metabolism of the carbohydrate-containing proteins presented in the first part of this review one can now consider the properties, both chemical and biologic, ...

Red/Brick Red: Very large amount of reducing sugars.

Glycans are important complex carbohydrates found on cell surfaces that serve crucial roles in cell-to-cell communication, ...

However, arene-carbohydrate interactions should be scalable with each additional sugar. As such, this type of recognition can be a potent tool in carbohydrate biochemistry. Our ability to predict and ...

New research uses a “human gut simulator” to study the effects of two different diets on the composition of gut microbiota. Its findings illuminate the harms of having no carbs in the diet. Share on ...

Dr. Peter H. Seeberger is the Director of the Max Planck Institute of Colloids and Interfaces in Berlin, a position he has held since 2009. He earned his Ph.D. in biochemistry from the University of ...
