Beginning with analytic approaches and bioinformatics, this work provides a detailed discussion of relevant databases, data inegration, and analysis. It then moves on to a discussion of specifc model organism and pathogen glycomes followed by therapeutic approaches to human disorders of glycosylation. Structure and function of glycomes are included along with state-of-the-art technologies and systems approaches to analysis of glycans. * Synthesizes contributions from experts in biology, chemistry, bioinformatics, biotechnology, and medicine * Highlights chapters devoted to chemical synthesis, cancer glycomics and immune cell glycomics * Includes discussions of proteomics, mass spectrometry, NMR, array technology, and transcriptomics analytic approaches.
