Journal Article

Chemical glycobiology : Carbohydrates and glycobiology

Carolyn R. Bertozzi, +1 more
- 01 Jan 2001 - 
TL;DR: Chemical tools have proven indispensable for studies in glycobiology and chemical approaches are contributing great insight into the myriad biological functions of oligosaccharides.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthetic Multivalent Ligands as Probes of Signal Transduction

TL;DR: This Review focuses on the use of synthetic multivalent ligands to characterize receptor function through chemical synthesis to address the role of receptor assembly in signal transduction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influencing Receptor−Ligand Binding Mechanisms with Multivalent Ligand Architecture

TL;DR: It is found that ligands with certain architectures are effective inhibitors, but others mediate receptor clustering, whereas linear oligomeric ligands generated by the ring-opening metathesis polymerization have structural properties that favor clustering.
Journal ArticleDOI

How many human proteoforms are there

Ruedi Aebersold, +53 more
TL;DR: This work frames central issues regarding determination of protein-level variation and PTMs, including some paradoxes present in the field today, and uses this framework to assess existing data and ask the question, "How many distinct primary structures of proteins (proteoforms) are created from the 20,300 human genes?"
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthetic multivalent ligands in the exploration of cell-surface interactions.

TL;DR: Synthetic multivalent ligands provide insight into how cells exploit multivalent interactions to bind with increased avidity and specificity and how cell-surface receptor organization influences signaling and the cellular responses that result.
