Architecture of Sweet Functions

Das Institut für Biochemie lädt gemeinsam mit dem Ortsverband der Gesellschaft Deutscher Chemiker zu einem Kolloquium der GDCh.
Prof. Dr. Jürgen Seibel, Institut für Organische Chemie, Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg, spricht zum Thema: "Architecture of Sweet Functions". Die Veranstaltung findet am 30. Juni um 16 Uhr c.t. im Großen Hörsaal der Biochemie, Felix-Hausdorff-Straße 4 in Greifswald, statt.

Abstract: Sugars are part of our daily life. Since more than 100 years the scientific community develops synthetic methods to assemble sugars and tries to analyze their functional roles. Today sugars research is called glycomics and is driven by the development of new analysis and synthesis techniques and novel strategies like metabolic glyco-labeling. Thus beside our topic “tailoring chemo-enzymatic glycosyltransfer reactions or how to assemble sugars”, the lecture will follow other research areas. Those include screening methods as a strategy to visualize biological recognition processes between carbohydrates and proteins. The lecture will also cover our approaches with a sweet fight against cancer and infectious diseases.

Search / advanced search of the idw archives
Combination of search terms

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.

Brackets

You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).

Phrases

Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.

Selection criteria

You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).

If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
