Other disorders in which glycoproteins have been implicated include hepatitis B and C, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, and diarrheas due to a number of bacterial enterotoxins. It is hoped that basic smdies of glycoproteins and other glycoconjugates (ie, the field of glycobiology) will lead to effective treatments for diseases in which these molecules are involved. Already, at least two disorders have been found to respond to oral supplements of sugars. 

Recent advances in glycobiology have significantly increased interest in nematode glycoconjugates (Dell et al., 1999a,b). As detailed structural analysis deciphers the intricate labyrinth of their molecular architecture, functional issues are beginning to be rationally addressed. It is anticipated that a better understanding of the glycobiology of nematode parasitism... 

Glycobiology, the study of the structure and function of glycoconjugates, is one of the most active and exciting areas of biochemistry and cell biology. As is becoming...
