Unlike amino acids and nucleic acids, carbohydrates have been disregarded for a longer time by the scientific community. This book covers such topics as: Oligosaccharides and glycoconjugates in recognition processes; carbohydrate modifying enzymes; and, carbohydrate-modifying enzymes for unusual sugar biosynthesis.
Inhoudsopgave:
Carbohydrates have long been disregarded by the scientific community due to their complex structure and a lack of suitable experimental methods for structure determination. This book provides an overview of the structure, function, and application of carbohydrate-modifying biocatalysts. It explores glycoconjugates and carbohydrate-modifying enzymes
