Cells encode information in the sequence of biopolymers, such as nucleic acids, proteins,
and glycans. Although glycans are essential to all living organisms, surprisingly little is …

The lattice symmetry of a crystal is one of the most important factors in determining its
physical properties. Particularly, low-symmetry crystals offer powerful opportunities to control …

Highlights•Ion mobility-mass spectrometry (IM-MS) based methods can be used to elucidate
complex glycans.•IM-MS enables coarse separation of molecular classes and rapid …

Amyloidogenic peptides and proteins play a crucial role in a variety of neurodegenerative
disorders such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. These proteins undergo a …

The diversity of stereochemical isomers present in glycans and glycoconjugates poses a
formidable challenge for comprehensive structural analysis. Typically, sophisticated mass …

Glycolipids are complex glycoconjugates composed of a glycan headgroup and a lipid
moiety. Their modular biosynthesis creates a vast amount of diverse and often isomeric …

Can the structures of small to medium‐sized proteins be conserved after transfer from the
solution phase to the gas phase? A large number of studies have been devoted to this topic …

Glycosyl cations are the key intermediates during the glycosylation reaction that covalently
links building blocks during the synthetic assembly of carbohydrates. The exact structure of …

The stereoselective formation of 1, 2-cis-glycosidic bonds is a major bottleneck in the
synthesis of carbohydrates. We here investigate how the electron density in acyl protecting …

We report the first observation of epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) phonon polaritons in an ultrathin
AlN film fully hybridized with surface phonon polaritons (SPhP) supported by the adjacent …
