Journal ArticleDOI

Structure and conformation of complex carbohydrates of glycoproteins, glycolipids, and bacterial polysaccharides

TL;DR: Although theoretical calculations of the conformation and stability of free oligosaccharides and of complexes with proteins can be carried out by molecular mechanics methods, the role of solvent water for these highly polar molecules continues to present computational problems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural basis for the interaction between human milk oligosaccharides and the bacterial lectin PA-IIL of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

TL;DR: This study demonstrates the specific blocking of PA-IIL, a fucose-binding lectin of the human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa, by milk oligosaccharides and provides important structural information about compounds that could be of general application in new therapeutic strategies against bacterial infections.
Journal ArticleDOI

Current trends in the structure-activity relationships of sialyltransferases.

TL;DR: The observed structural and functional differences strongly suggest that these two structural superfamilies have evolved independently of the canonical glycosyltransferase folds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Binding sugars: from natural lectins to synthetic receptors and engineered neolectins

TL;DR: From the accumulated knowledge on protein-carbohydrate interactions, it is now possible to use nucleotide and peptide (bio)synthesis for producing new carbohydrate-binding molecules and this approach can also be addressed by boron chemistry and supra-molecular chemistry for the design of fully artificial glycosensors.
