| Probing carbohydrate function: Using glycopeptidomimetics to create new tools for biotechnological research. | |||||
| people | Glycobiology, the study of complex carbohydrates, is one of the most important and technically challenging areas of biochemical research. However, significant advances in analytical techniques are required to move the field forward. The major goal of this project is to utilize peptides to develop valuable new tools for the glycomic research community. Namely, to use phage display technology to isolate peptides that successfully mimic carbohydrate epitopes, as demonstrated by binding different glycosyl hydrolase enzymes. The data will be used to build GlyMPS (GlycoMimetic Peptide Source), a database for the glycobiological community. | ||||
