Carbohydrates are involved in most biological processes in cells, and any alterations in glycan structure or composition may be a cause or consequential attribute of biochemical imbalance. Therefore in current glycobiology research, it is increasingly significant to understand the structural details of biologically important polysaccharides. During the past years, sophisticated mass spectrometry techniques and instrumentation have been developed rapidly in the biomedical field. While these developments have been driven primarily by the demand in the fields of protein science and proteomic research, contemporary glycobiology has also benefited from these developments.
Characterization of the glycome is a key part of understanding the biological basis of health and disease. A number of technologies and methods have been developed to help decipher glycosylation and elucidate glycomic changes. At present, novel mass analyzers and tandem mass spectrometry techniques are now being used to determine the sequence, linkage, chain branching, and other aspects of oligosaccharide structures with unprecedented sensitivity and mass resolution.
CD BioGlyco has made significant progress in the development of powerful structural tools to probe even the most complex structural properties of various intracellular and intercellular signaling and regulation. We offer a wide range of services to our clients in the field of glycomics including glycan profiling, glycan sequencing, and glycan structure analysis.
