Glycoproteomics and Glycomics

Edited by Dr Punit Shah & Dr Hui Zhang

Clinical Proteomics published the Glycoproteomics and glycomics thematic series with both solicited and unsolicited content on the topic of protein glycosylation; one of the most common protein modifications in both normal biological processes and diseases. The series focusses on glycoproteomic or glycomic methods and their clinical applications. For further information or to make a pre-submission enquiry, please contact clinicalproteomicsjournal@biomedcentral.com.

For previous publications on the topic of glycoproteomics in Clinical Proteomics, you may like to refer to volume 4 which can be accessed via the SpringerLink website.
