Riassunto

The new edition of Essentials of Glycobiology covers the general principles and describes the structure and biosynthesis, diversity and function of glycans and their relevance to both normal physiologic processes and human disease. Several new chapters present significant advances that have occurred since the publication of the first edition. Three sections of note describe organismal diversity, advances in our understanding of disease states and related therapeutic applications, and the genomic view of Glycobiology. Glycomics , analogous to genomics and proteomics, is the systematic study of all glycan structures of a given cell type or organism, and paves the way for a more thorough understanding of the functions of these ubiquitous molecules.

Recensione

The basic principles of glycobiology are clearly articulated in this volume, and the roles of complex carbohydrates in disease are an important read for all biomedical scientists. --Peter Agre, M.D., Nobel Laureate in Chemistry, 2003

Essentials of Glycobiology is a major resource for understanding these post-translational biochemical reactions that affect the function and fate of proteins produced by the genes that are profoundly changed by their added sugars. --Baruch S. Blumberg, Nobel Laureate in Medicine, 1976

The second edition of Essentials of Glycobiology, superbly printed and illustrated, develops in simple and absolutely precise terms the complicated intricacies of glycobiology. I would have killed to get this encyclopedic treatise 40 years ago when I was working my way through this field. --Edmond H. Fischer, Nobel Laureate in Medicine, 1992
