Sialic Acids, Volume 76, the most recent release in the Advances in Carbohydrate Chemistry and Biochemistry series, is the second volume of a two-volume set devoted to the sialic acids. Vol. 76, devoted to the biological and biomedical aspects of sialic acids, includes chapters on "Sialic Acids in Neurology," "Sialic Acids in Nonenveloped Virus Infections," and "The Biology of Gangliosides," all written by leading experts in their fields.
The idea for a volume on sialic acids sprang from an e-mail from Johannis P. (Hans) Kamerling, who proposed that he and Roland Schauer contribute a chapter that would ... 76, Sialic Acids, Part II: Biological and Biomedical Aspects.
"Essentials of Glycobiology" describes their biogenesis and function and offers a useful gateway to the understanding of glycans.
The book provides insights on the latest knowledge in the field of sialoglycobiology. Sialic acids as terminal residues of oligosaccharide chains play crucial roles in several cellular recognition events.
In this book emphasis is given to various modern methods used in the isolation and analysis of sialic acids.
