Abstract

This chapter describes the development of various methods used in the visualization of the glycosylation process in animals and in living cells, with particular focus on the development of reporter groups and molecular probes for use to monitor the posttranslational glycosylation event in normal and disease states in order to understand the process and to identify the glycans associated with specific function or disease.
