      abstract = {"This book presents state of the art biophysical  approaches to issues in glycobiology that have cutting-edge  applications. Despite the importance of glycosylation, the  complexity, heterogeneity, and flexibility of the glycans  have inhibited their study. Each chapter in this book  explains very recent significant advances in biophysical  approaches through the use of techniques such as NMR  spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, single-molecule imaging,  X-ray crystallography, high-speed atomic force microscopy,  and computational simulation and their integrative  application. Concrete examples are provided of the value of  these techniques in addressing key problems in the field.  In addition, significant functional glycobiological issues  are considered. For example, glycolipids can form dynamic  clusters on cell membranes and provide platforms for  molecules involved in cell recognition and subsequent  signal transduction. The detailed delineation of these  molecular systems is discussed, revealing their structural  complexity and ability to assemble transiently. This timely  book will be of value for graduate students and postdocs  interested in frontier topics in glycoscience and also for  senior bio-researchers in academic and industrial  fields"--Publisher's description.},
