The rapid development of vaccines that harness the power of messenger RNA (or mRNA) has been a bright spotin this COVID-19 pandemic. Although mRNA vaccines may seem new, researchers have developed the technology for many decades. For example, Moderna’s and Pfizer’s coronavirus vaccines have shown the enormous potential of mRNA therapies to treat various diseases. […]
Oligosaccharides found on cell surfaces are essential in biological processes such as interactions between cells and cancer metastasis and infection of viruses, and more. Although the sugar chain’s myriad functions have been outlined, the biggest challenge in glycoscience is finding enough resources to complete the research. We provide a variety of sugar synthons to synthesize […]
What is Glycosyltransferase? Glycosyltransferases belong to a class of enzymes that facilitate the transfer of sugar moiety from activated sugar to carbohydrate or non-carbohydrate acceptors. Apart from hyaluronan synthase, glycosyltransferases lengthen glycans by adding monosaccharides to non-reducing ends of the acceptor substrates. Transfer reactions are linkage-specific, and the resultant product is fixed within a specific […]
