Overview

Glycosylation is a biochemical reaction in which sugar molecules are attached to proteins or lipids. It is an important post-translational modification in cells and is involved in many biological processes such as cell signaling, protein folding, and enzyme activity. It also plays a role in the development of cancer and other diseases. Glycosylation plays an important role in the function of cells, including their ability to interact with other cells and their immune system. It can also be used to create new drugs and vaccines, and to detect and diagnose diseases.
