Mass spectrometry imaging of N‐linked glycans: Fundamentals and recent advances
Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.Abstract With implications in several medical conditions, N‐linked glycosylation is one of the most important posttranslation modifications present in all living organisms. Due to their nontemplate synthesis, glycan structures are extraordinarily complex and require multiple analytical techniques for complete structural elucidation.
