[PDF] The Molecular Immunology of Complex Carbohydrates ?2 Nathan Sharon, Halina Lis (auth.), Albert M. Wu (eds.)

This volume highlights the informative events of the Symposium on Molecular Immunology of Complex Carbohydrates II, held at the Institute of Biological Chemistry, Academia Sinica, on August 28-September 1, 1999, in Taipei, Taiwan. The Editor intertwined this conference, a satellite meeting of the 15th International Glycoconjugate Conference, with a Glycobiology Workshop, resulting in one of the most comprehensive handbooks on carbohydrate specificities of applied lectins and anti- carbohydrate monoclonal antibodies in the field. The proceedings provide information on glycotopes required for essential basic concepts and applications. It will be a useful tool for researchers and beginners in the fields of immunology, biochemistry, cancer research, and structural biology for years to come.
