Progress in the Ligation Chemistry for Glycoprotein Synthesis

Abstract

Recently, reports on the synthesis of homogeneous glycoproteins are increasing. These achievements are based on the progress in the preparation method of carbohydrate chains and of polypeptides. Here we discuss about the results of these glycoprotein synthesis, mainly based on the peptide science point of view. © 2010, FCCA(Forum: Carbohydrates Coming of Age). All rights reserved.
