Mucus glycoproteins behavior

Knowledge of the structure and behavior of mucus glycoproteins in solution is crucial for a proper understanding of their behavior in situ, where they often exist in a more concentrated form. It is these molecules which generally dictate the physical properties of mucus (namely, high viscosity, viscoelastic... [Pg.346]

The last chapter, written by S. E. Harding (Nottingham, United Kingdom), describes and discusses the macrostructure of mucus glycoproteins, complex polyelectrolytes whose behavior in solution is governed by aspects of secondary and tertiary stmcture that control their interactions in biological systems. [Pg.433]
