Although carbohydrates represent one of the most important families of biomolecules, they remain under-studied in comparison to the other biomolecular families (peptides, nucleobases). Beyond their best-known function of energy source in living systems, they act as mediator of molecular recognition processes, carrying molecular information in the so ...

Chromatographic separation of mannitol from mixtures of other carbohydrates in aqueous solutions
The isolation of mannitol from natural sources, e.g. from plant extracts or broths, requires considerable time and effort. The separation of mannitol from aqueous solutions containing also glucose, fructose, and sucrose was tested using discontinuous ...

Weak carbohydrate-carbohydrate interactions in membrane adhesion are fuzzy and generic [PDF]
Carbohydrates such as the trisaccharide motif LeX are key constituents of cell surfaces. Despite intense research, the interactions between carbohydrates of apposing cells or membranes are not well understood. In this article, we investigate carbohydrate-carbohydrate interactions in membrane adhesion as well as in solution with extensive atomistic ...
