Sažetak
Glycomics is the investigation and documentation of the large collection of glycan structures. The function of a glycan can vary depending on the protein to which it is attached and the precise site of attachment. It is imperative, therefore, to document the structure and function of the entire glycoprotein. This integrated approach of compiling glycoprotein structure and function is defined as glycoproteomics. In this meeting, various aspects of the structure– function relationship of glycoproteins were discussed, with an emphasis on the roles of glycans in the development of numerous pathological conditions, as well as in pathogen– host interactions.
