Biologically interesting glycopeptides

Although the limitations of the enzymic reactions lie in the substrate selectivity and in the availability of enzymes and appropriate nucleotide sugar derivatives, further developments in this field will offer an interesting and efficient potential for the synthetic construction of glycopeptides of biological interest.
