Articles Of Glycomics

Glycome is the whole complement of sugars, free or present in more complex molecules, of an organism. Another definition is the totality of carbohydrates in a cell. Glycoma can actually be one of the most complex entities in nature. Glycomics, analogous to genomics and proteomics, is the systematic study of all glycan structures of a given cell type or organism and is a subset of glycobiology. Glycans play a central role as potential mediators betwixt complex cell societies, as all living organisms are made up of cells coated with various carbohydrate chains reflecting various cell types and states. However, we have no idea of   the diversity of these carbohydrate chains. The main purpose of this article is to persuade life scientists to realize the fundamental importance of taking action by getting involved in "glycomics". "Glycome" is a term designating all the glycans produced by individual organisms, such as the third bioinformative macromolecules to be elucidated alongside the genome and the proteome.
