Glycoimmunology 2

The second installment of this outstanding treatise constitutes a single source for the rapid advances in glycobiology, from the basic biochemistry of carbohydrate physiology, to therapeutic trials using synthetic sugars designed to block inflammatory responses. Subjects are arranged in sections on -- glycobiology basics -- oligosaccharides and protein recognition -- oligosaccharides and biological function -- glycosylation and inflammation -- glycosylation and disease -- glycotherapeutics.
