Advancing Solutions to the Carbohydrate Sequencing Challenge [PDF]
Carbohydrates possess a variety of distinct features with stereochemistry playing a particularly important role in distinguishing their structure and function. Monosaccharide building blocks are defined by a high density of chiral centers. Additionally, the anomericity and regiochemistry of the glycosidic linkages carry important biological information.

The carbohydrate sequence markup language (CabosML): an XML description of carbohydrate structures [PDF]
Bioinformatics resources for glycomics are very poor as compared with those for genomics and proteomics. The complexity of carbohydrate sequences makes it difficult to define a common language to represent them, and the development of bioinformatics tools for glycomics has not progressed.

Protein-carbohydrate interactions during fertilization [PDF]
Interaction between gametes during fertilization is at least in part regulated by carbohydrate moieties of the zona pellucida (ZP) and carbohydrate binding proteins of the sperm surface. This review focuses on the protein-carbohydrate interactions during

Acetylated glucuronoxylan is one of the most common types of hemicellulose in nature. The structure is formed by a β-(1→4)-linked D-xylopyranosyl (Xylp) backbone that can be substituted with an acetyl group at O-2 and O-3 positions, and α-(1→2)-linked 4 ...

Meiofauna at a tropical sandy beach in the SW Atlantic: the influence of seasonality on diversity [PDF]
Background Sandy beaches are dynamic environments housing a large diversity of organisms and providing important environmental services. Meiofaunal metazoan are small organisms that play a key role in the sediment.

Carbohydrate-carbohydrate interaction provides adhesion force and specificity for cellular recognition and adhesion [PDF]
Carbohydrates at the cell surface have been proposed as mediators in cell-cell recognition events involved in embryogenesis, metastasis, and other proliferation processes by calcium-dependent carbohydrate to carbohydrate interactions.

Carbohydrate sequence of a soybean 7S protein.
The sequences of three Asn-carbohydrates, IIa, Asn(GlcNAc)2-(Man)9; IIb, Asn(GlcNAc)2(Man)8; and IIc, Asn(GlcNAc)2(Man)7 isolated from the pronase digest of a 7S soybean protein (β-conglycinin) were investigated. In each case, methylation analysis of the Asn-carbohydrates gave 3, 6-di-O-methyl derivative from the N-acetyl-glucosamine residue, and 2, 3,
