INTRODUCTION Variants of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-
2) have been circulating worldwide since the beginning of the pandemic. Some are termed …

Abstract CXCL14, chemokine (CXC motif) ligand 14, is a novel highly conserved chemokine
with unique features. Despite exhibiting the typical chemokine fold, it has a very short N …

Carbohydrate–receptor interactions are an integral part of biological events. They play an
important role in many cellular processes, such as cell-cell adhesion, cell differentiation and …

Polymer‐grafted hybrid materials have been ubiquitously employed in various engineering
applications. The design of these hybrid materials with superior performances requires a …

We investigate the effect of pectin on the structure and ion transport properties of the room-
temperature ionic liquid electrolyte 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate …

A two-state model is commonly used for interpreting ring conformations of furanoses based
on NMR scalar 3 J-coupling constants, with the ring populating relatively narrow …

The immunoglobulin type G (IgG) Fc N-glycans are known to modulate the interaction with
membrane-bound Fc γ receptors (FcγRs), fine-tuning the antibody's effector function in a …

A variety of computational techniques may be applied to compute theoretical binding free
energies for protein–carbohydrate complexes. Elucidation of the intermolecular interactions …

Over the years, structural characterizations of α (2–8)-polysialic acid (polySia) in solution
have produced inconclusive results. Efforts for obtaining detailed information in this …

Ebola virus glycoprotein is one of the most heavily O-glycosylated viral envelope
glycoproteins. The glycoprotein possesses a large mucin-like domain responsible for the …
