Tóm tắt:This is the first textbook which introduces the essential elements of glycobiology in a way that is readily accessible to undergraduates and other non-specialists. It will be of wide interest to graduate students, postdoctoral researchers and faculty members in related fields, who want an introduction to this important interdisciplinary field. Coherent stories about what sugars do for cells and organisms are the focus--particularly the importance of glycosylation in protein secretion and stability, cell-cell adhesion and signaling, and innate and adaptive immunity. The ways in which glycobiology explains human disease are discussed throughout the book, giving it a biomedical context. Illustrated throughout with all new custom-drawn figures, the book's simple organization, highlighted terms and annotated key reference lists make it readable and accessible. In addition, all the figures from the book will be available to download free from the companion web site at http://www.oup.com/uk/best.textbooks/biochemistry/glycobiolo
