This journal focuses on the study of glycans and their roles in biological systems. Research includes the chemical synthesis of complex glycans, the function of cell surface glycans in viral and bacterial interactions, and the involvement of glycosylation in protein modification and cellular processes. Specific areas of interest include sialic acid-containing glycans, core fucosylation, and heparan sulfate proteoglycans in various physiological and pathological contexts.
