This book presents the state of the art in the synthesis very
complex saccharide structures, written by leading scientists at the
forefront of this rapidly growing field. Reflecting the particular
significance in recent years of efficient and selective procedures
employing enzymes for preparative purposes in the carbohydrate
field, a major proportion of the articles focus on these
biocatalytic methods. In addition, recent strategies for the
construction of unusual carbohydrates structures employing novel
and creative methodologies are highlighted. Further, particular
emphasis is placed on very complex saccharide structures as well as
on special solutions to problems that are particularly challenging.
As a reflection of the quantum leap that has been made in the
study of glycostructures, the first edition of this book has been
completely revised and updated. The editors give up-to-date
information on glycostructures, their chemistry and chemical
biology in the form of a completely comprehensive survey.
Glycostructures play highly diverse and crucial roles in a myriad
of organisms and important systems in biology, physiology,
medicine, bioengineering and technology. Only in recent years have
the tools been developed to partly understand the highly complex
functions and the chemistry behind them. While many facts remain
undiscovered, this MRW has been contributed to by a large number of
the world s leading researchers in the field."
