Elegant study shows how the location and composition of N-glycans (glyco-code) influences protein folding and quality control. Competition between early lectin chaperone and BiP, and the role of UGGT particularly ineteresting.

Excited about the #GlycoNMR summit (online meeting) that is just about to start. #NMR analysis of polysaccharides and glycoproteins. The event runs multiple days on zoom, hosted by the University of Georgia. More info and register: https://mailchi.mp/deff7bbeac2e/join-us-for-the-2023-glyconmr-summit #nmrchat #glycotime

Interesting! L-fucose administration ameliorates the LPS-induced neuroinflammation in the Fut8+/− mice, suggesting that core fucosylation plays a vital role in anti-inflammation. L-Fuc as a potential drug against neuroinflammation?

You have heard of the periodic table of elements-
we present the Periodic Table of Monosaccharides where we attempt to arrange the monosaccharides in a systematic table.

📢#Glycoscience Community on Mastadon.
Are you attending the Society for Glycobiology meeting in Hawaii? Find us and learn about the work at the NCFG and the Cummings Lab.
1. We are hosting a Satellite meeting on Nov. 5th, entitled: NCFG Tools in Glycoscience, we hope you will be joining us!
2. Come check out our posters at the SFG meeting:
#155, #401, #67, #79, #89, #224, #170, and #225
We have some interesting developments in #glycan #microarrays, #glycomics and other fun stuff!
Only *two* weeks to the Annual SfG Meeting 2023 in Hawaii! 
Check out the program of the #glycotime event of the year! ⬇️

Our paper "Can #ChatGPT pass Glycobiology" is now live on #Glycobiology https://doi.org/10.1093/glycob/cwad064 
In this work Devin and I test chatGPT to answer a range of Glycobiology questions to assess its potentials and limitations, from the point of view of an undergraduate student and as a more expert user.
You may find a few laughs and some inspiration for educational or investigative purposes.
Hope you all enjoy it!

Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are essential components of the extracellular matrix, key players in countless cellular functions in health and disease. Yet, the biological roles of GAGs are too often still a mystery, due to their inherent disorder and variable sulfation patterns.
In this review out now in JACS Au ⬇️ we discuss the methods for GAGs discovery available today and present perspectives for future developments with very exciting prospects 1/2 🧵
Applications are open for Structural Glycoscience summer school in Grenoble!
