Glycans and Glycan-Binding Proteins in Atherosclerosis [PDF]
AbstractComplex glycans are readily accessible on the endothelium and on cell and plasma components. They interact with glycan-binding proteins which translate their structure into function. Advanced analytical tools are available to investigate their structure and functional interactions.

Glycan profiling of the gut microbiota by Glycan-seq
Abstract Bacterial glycans modulate the cross talk between the gut microbiota and its host. However, little is known about these glycans because of the lack of appropriate technology to study them. In this study, we applied Glycan-seq technology for glycan profiling of the intact gut microbiota of mice. The evaluation of cultured gram-

The Search for Cryptic L-Rhamnosyltransferases on the Sporothrix schenckii Genome
The fungal cell wall is an attractive structure to look for new antifungal drug targets and for understanding the host-fungus interaction. Sporothrix schenckii is one of the main causative agents of both human and animal sporotrichosis and currently is ...
