Complex glycosylation patterns containing multiantennary N-glycans are typically found in mature glycoproteins. However,
the structural characterization of these glycans is rather challenging. Usually, standard NMR and X-ray diffraction techniques fail to provide specific answers on the structure and molecular recognition features due to intrinsic attributes
of the glycan. As a promising approach, carbohydrates conjugated to lanthanide binding tags have revealed high potential toward this aim. This methodology has first been applied to the study of small oligosaccharides (di-, tri- and tetrasaccharides). Proceeding from this experimental basis, we have extended this concept to the level of high degree branching and long chain N-glycans. In addition, the molecular recognition properties of these complex glycans were characterized in detailed thanks to the unprecedented resolution obtained in the spectra.
Los nuevos biofertilizantes, desarrollados en el IBVF, están formulados a base de estirpes de cianobacterias autóctonas de la región del Bajo Guadalquivir.
El premio lo concede la Universidad de Sevilla anualmente a las tesis defendidas en el curso académico anterior.
Este premio se une al NANOMATMOL que le fue concedido también por su tesis doctoral.
El acto se celebró el pasado 26 de septiembre y contó con la presencia del Delegado del Gobierno en Andalucía D: Jesús Lucrecio Fernández
