High-throughput analysis of immunoglobulin G glycosylation

Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: Glycosylation of immunoglobulin G (IgG) is important for its effector functions and was shown to be related to age, sex and disease status of an individual. Adding glycomic information to genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and large clinical trials is enabling insight into the functional relevance of changes in glycosylation, as well as molecular mechanisms behind these changes. Large-scale...
