Sugars are familiar as vital sources of energy. Yet the biological
importance of the sugars extends well beyond their value as
cellular fuels. Introduction to Glycobiology reveals the true
impact of the sugars on biological systems, explaining their
function at the molecular, cellular, and organismal level.
Employing a two-part structure, the book leads us through essential
principles and concepts upon which the discipline is grounded,
before exploring the diverse roles of sugars throughout biological
systems, including development, cell signalling, and protein
trafficking. It also emphasises the importance of glycobiology in
disease, and explains how an understanding of the link between the
two is enabling us to develop new therapeutic strategies. Taking
the student from the fundamental principles to the frontiers of the
subject, and with a wealth of learning features to get the most out
of their studies, Introduction to Glycobiology remains the ideal
resource for students and teachers alike. Online Resource Centre
