Polysaccharides are biomacromolecular widely applied in the food industry, as gelling
agents, thickeners and health supplements. As hydrophobic groups, acetyls provide …

The unique structural architecture of the peptidoglycan allows for the stratification of bacteria
as either Gram-negative or Gram-positive, which makes bacterial cells distinguishable from …

Bacteria use a diverse range of carbohydrates to generate a profusion of glycans, with
amino sugars, such as N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc), being prevalent in the cell wall and in …

Serving as an exoskeletal scaffold, peptidoglycan is a polymeric macromolecule that is
essential and conserved across all bacteria, yet is absent in mammalian cells; this has made …

The recent advancement in the human glycome and progress in the development of an
inclusive network of glycosylation pathways allow the incorporation of suitable machinery for …

Bacterial cells are covered by a complex carbohydrate coat of armor that allows bacteria to
thrive in a range of environments. As a testament to the importance of bacterial glycans …
