glycoshape.org has now a blog where we discuss (yep you got it) glycans, glycoproteins and fun stuff! Season 1 is out with: Ep01: Why should we care about glycan heterogeneity? Ep02: How can we include glycan heterogeneity in a 3D framework? Ep03: Molecular precision glycoscience: Enter Siglecs

Ben @benschulz.bsky.social , Ojas @ojas-singh.bsky.social and I have been pondering about heterogeneity a lot lately 🤔 In this COSB review we discuss the fruits of our pondering, discussions and readings, and we share our awe for the power and ingenuity of glycoheterogeneity in a 🧵 @glycoshape.org

Thank you Trinidad Velasco-Torrijos for enlighting conference in multivalent glycoconjugates for fighting fungal infections

Bacterial glycans are a nightmare to model. Unusual sugars, missing parameters… I’ve been working on extending the GLYCAM builder to include them — together with @robertamarchetti.bsky.social, @olivercgrant.bsky.social and the group of Prof. Woods. Preprint👇 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

For all interested in glycolipids. Interesting review about synthesis of GSLs, their role in physiology, pathology, endocytosis/trafficking/secretion and GSL-targeting strategies in drug design. tinyurl.com/bdpy9zub #glycotime

Last cross country ski for this winter. Hoping for such excellent snow next season … and ready for hiking now

´Sugars for dummies’ by the one and only Serge Perez is the best introduction lecture to Glycosciences and our Glyco@club members enjoyed it

Si vous avez besoin de vous changer les idées, je vous conseille de regarder "les superpouvoirs des plantes" sur France TV C'est passionnant, les scènes de captation sont vraiment extraordinaires et on apprend plein de choses étonnantes Biodiversité et évolution 😍 www.france.tv/france-5/les...

Another great study from @drmpblakeley.bsky.social @anneimb.bsky.social: neutron macromolecular crystallography (NMX) of a lectin from P. aeruginosa reveals how the pathogen utilizes calcium-dependent lectin for binding to human sugars. tinyurl.com/243xbhbt #glycotime

We are excited to introduce your 2026 Society for Glycobiology Executive Committee! This dedicated group of leaders is committed to advancing our mission, strengthening our community, and supporting innovation across the field of glycobiology. Congratulations and welcome! 👏 hashtag#SFG2026

Wee thread 🧵⬇️ on our new #glycotime with @siglecdude.bsky.social John Klassen and @glycocode.bsky.social 🥳 where we show Siglecs as molecular precision tools, able to recognise sialylated glycans with surgical precision in their natural environment, not bad for a lectin! 😎 doi.org/10.1038/s420...
