Formation of the sugar–amino acid linkage is a crucial event in the biosynthesis of the
carbohydrate units of glycoproteins. It sets into motion a complex series of posttranslational …

Separation of polar compounds on polar stationary phases with partly aqueous eluents is by
no means a new separation mode in LC. The first HPLC applications were published more …

Plant cell walls are complex, dynamic cellular structures essential for plant growth,
development, physiology and adaptation. Plant Cell Walls provides an in depth and diverse …

The biosynthesis, structures, and functions of O-glycosylation, as a complex
posttranslational event, is reviewed and compared for the various types of O-glycans. Mucin …

1.1. General Considerations Structural intricacies of carbohydrate molecules and their
propensity to form varied linkages, substitutions, and branching patterns have fascinated …

This review describes the application of matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI)
mass spectrometry to carbohydrate analysis and covers the period 1991–1998. The …

Fasciclin-like arabinogalactan proteins (FLAs) are a subclass of arabinogalactan proteins
(AGPs) that have, in addition to predicted AGP-like glycosylated regions, putative cell …

Characterization of glycoproteins using mass spectrometry ranges from determination of
carbohydrate-protein linkages to the full characterization of all glycan structures attached to …

Next to the identification of proteins and the determination of their expression levels, the
analysis of post-translational modifications (PTM) is becoming an increasingly important …

While only about ten percent of the databank entries are defined as glycoproteins, it has
been estimated recently that more than half of all proteins are glycoproteins. Mucintype …
