Glycomics
Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-004943
The systematic study of all glycan structures (the glycome) in a given cell type, tissue, or organism. This field involves identifying, characterizing, and quantifying glycans and their interactions with other biomolecules. Glycomics aims to understand the biological roles of glycans in health and disease, complementing genomics and proteomics.
