Abstract excerpt
The characterization of protein glycosylation can be a complex and time-consuming procedure, especially for prokaryote O-linked glycoproteins, which often comprise unusual oligosaccharide structures with no known glycosylation motif. In this report, we describe a "top-down" approach that provides information on the extent of glycosylation, the molecular masses, and the structure of oligosaccharide residues on...
