Biological roles of oligosaccharides: all of the theories are correct

Ajit Varki · 1 Apr 1993

Many different theories have been advanced concerning the biological roles of the oligosaccharide units of individual classes of glycoconjugates. Analysis of the evidence indicates that while all of these theories are correct, exceptions to each can also be found. The biological roles of oligosaccharides appear to span the spectrum from those that are trivial, to…

Biological roles of glycans

Ajit Varki · 24 Aug 2016

Simple and complex carbohydrates (glycans) have long been known to play major metabolic, structural and physical roles in biological systems. Targeted microbial binding to host glycans has also been studied for decades. But such biological roles can only explain some of the remarkable complexity and organismal diversity of glycans in nature. Reviewing the subject about…

New insights on trehalose: a multifunctional molecule

Alan D. Elbein · 22 Jan 2003

Trehalose is a nonreducing disaccharide in which the two glucose units are linked in an alpha,alpha-1,1-glycosidic linkage. This sugar is present in a wide variety of organisms, including bacteria, yeast, fungi, insects, invertebrates, and lower and higher plants, where it may serve as a source of energy and carbon. In yeast and plants, it may…

Human milk oligosaccharides: Every baby needs a sugar mama

Lars Bode · 18 Apr 2012

Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) are a family of structurally diverse unconjugated glycans that are highly abundant in and unique to human milk. Originally, HMOs were discovered as a prebiotic "bifidus factor" that serves as a metabolic substrate for desired bacteria and shapes an intestinal microbiota composition with health benefits for the breast-fed neonate. Today, HMOs…

Protein glycosylation: nature, distribution, enzymatic formation, and disease implications of glycopeptide bonds

Robert G. Spiro · 1 Apr 2002

Formation of the sugar-amino acid linkage is a crucial event in the biosynthesis of the carbohydrate units of glycoproteins. It sets into motion a complex series of posttranslational enzymatic steps that lead to the formation of a host of protein-bound oligosaccharides with diverse biological functions. These reactions occur throughout the entire phylogenetic spectrum, ranging from…

Glycobiology template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Glycobiology format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Glycobiology template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Oxford University Press format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Glycobiology use?
Glycobiology uses Author–year (OUP) references, shown as author–year markers such as (Smith, 2023) in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: Smith, A., Jones, B. and Lee, C. (2023) 'A representative article title', Glycobiology, 12(3), pp. 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Glycobiology?
No. DocuGuru generates the oup-authoring-template LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Oxford University Press-ready Glycobiology document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Glycobiology template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Glycobiology format with correct headings, figures, tables, and author–year citations.
Who publishes Glycobiology?
Glycobiology is a multidisciplinary journal published by Oxford University Press. DocuGuru's Glycobiology template matches Oxford University Press's official submission format.
Can I export a submission-ready Glycobiology PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Glycobiology template (the oup-authoring-template class) that is ready to submit to Oxford University Press, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Glycobiology template cost?
You can start writing in the Glycobiology template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Glycobiology PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
