At one time, it was thought that only eukaryotic cells could glycosylate proteins. Two major kinds of glycoproteins were recognized in animal cells, consisting of O- or N-linked saccharides. The O-linked saccharides were derived from gly- sylation of threonine or serine, whereas N-linked saccharides were derived from asparagine. In recent years, numerous glycoproteins have been found in bacteria, many of which do not possess typical animal cell glycosylation patterns. One of the purposes of this volume is to provide a thorough discussion of c- bohydrate-peptide linkages in bacteria. Interestingly, though Braun's lipoprotein of some gram-negative bacteria was discovered nearly three ... Read more

Reviews for Glycomicrobiology
`Overall the book provides an extensive review of our understanding of glycomicrobiology and reveals that the subject is still in the logarithmic phase of growth. The book will therefore be an important source of information and relevant literature references to active researchers in the field.' The Journal of Medical Microbiology, 50:5 (2001) `This book is of greatest use ... Read more
