Recent advances in both molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy have significantly enhanced our understanding of carbohydrate structure and dynamics.

Chemists have designed a carbohydrate-based molecule that can surround and strangle bone cancer cells by self-assembling into a tangled web of nanofibers (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2014, DOI: 10.1021/ ...

Nobody would argue with the statement that proteins are a challenge for computer modelers. Descriptions of their swirls of helices and ribbons, to say nothing of their further folding, can tax even ...

A clever means of identifying carbohydrate molecules quickly and accurately has been developed by researchers. The results of his research pave the way for a new generation of analytic tools capable ...

Researchers at the University of Georgia, collaborating with scientists at the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta, have discovered the structure of a unique cell-wall ...

Humans don’t make a carbohydrate called Neu5Gc, but most mammals, including cows, do. So when people eat red meat, the Neu5Gc it contains enters the body and gets incorporated into tissues. As it ...

Scientists have identified a key carbohydrate molecule, called heparan sulphate, which the novel coronavirus uses to infect human cells, an advance that may provide a potential new approach for ...

Rutgers scientists have developed an analytical toolkit to measure the binding forces of single proteins when they are pulled away from their substrate – such as an enzyme – that will help the ...
