Track: 1 Glycosience

Glycoscience contributes in three important ways focusing on Understanding of Human health and diseases, searching for alternative sources of energy and innovating new materials. The glycoscience knowledge will be embedded in efforts to address fundamental challenges in health and sustainability.

Glycoscience deals with human health because this has been a main focus of efforts in the field of glycoscience and glycomics, mostly in the United States. Actually many scientists automatically think of health when they think of glycans and their functions. Other researchers clearly study  carbohydrates and their uses (e.g., in polymer engineering), the terminology and techniques used by these fields may differ. As a consequence, the scientific community may not immediately think of the entirety of glycan research as part of a unified field of glycoscience.

• Glycoproteins
• Glycosylation
• Glyconutrients

Track: 2 Glycobiology

It contains the study of everything related to the structure, bio-synthesis, and biology of sugars and saccharides drawing from simple organic chemistry, molecular and cellular biology, enzymology and related domains. Like amino acids and nucleic acids, sugars are the major contributors in nature many natural products contain oligosaccharides that are important for their biological and biochemical activity and carbohydrates have major roles in a wider range of biological processes including signal transduction mechanisms and immune responses. So the study of glycan structures is also complicated by the lack of a proper and direct template for their biosynthesis, contrary to the case with amino acids and proteins.

• Glycan linkage
• Glycosidic bond
• Glycoprotein diversity

Track: 3 Biochemistry

Biochemistry is a sub-disciple of both biology and chemistry it is divided into three fields as Molecular Genetics, Protein biology and Metabolism. From the last ten decades of the 20th Century, biochemistry has three disciplines become successful at explaining living process. Biochemistry concentrates on accepting how biological molecules give rise to the procedures that occur within living cells and between cells, which in shot recounts greatly to the study and understanding of tissues, organs, and organism structure and function.

 Track 4: Glycan’s

Glycans can be initiate attached to proteins as in glycoproteins and proteoglycans. In general, they are found on the external surface of cells. O- and N-linked glycans are right collective in eukaryotes but may similarly found, although less commonly, in prokaryotes. Glycan classifications cannot be well-defined by a simple linear one-letter code as every duplet of monosaccharide’s can be associate in various ways and tributary structures can be designed. Few of the bioinformatics algorithms established for genomics or proteomics can be straightly adapted for glycomics. The progress of algorithms, which allow a rapid, automatic interpretation of mass spectra to recognise glycan structures, is at this time the most active field of research.

Track: 5 Synthesis and Biological Role of Glycans

The biological parts of glycans can be separated into two wide categories. The structural and modulatory properties of glycans and the specific recognition of glycans by other molecules. Most commonly, glycan-binding proteins (GBPs). The biological consequences of varying glycosylation in several schemes seem to be extremely adjustable and unpredictable. A specified glycan can have diverse roles in altered tissues or at different times in development (organism-intrinsic functions) or in dissimilar environmental contexts (organism-extrinsic functions). Methods taken to know the biological parts of glycans contain the prevention of early glycosylation, prevention of glycan chain elongation, alteration of glycan processing, enzymatic or chemical deglycosylation of completed chains, genetic elimination of glycosylation sites, and the education of certainly happening genetic variants and mutants in glycosylation. Glycosylation mainly mentions in exact to the enzymatic procedure that attributes glycans to proteins, lipids, or other organic molecules. This enzymatic method produces one of the fundamental biopolymers found in cells (along with DNA, RNA, and proteins). Glycosylation also displays a role in cell-cell adhesion (a apparatus employed by cells of the immune system) via sugar-binding proteins called lectins, which identify exact carbohydrate moieties.

Track: 6 Evolution of Glycan Diversity

Glycans are saccharides that can be involved to a widespread variation of biological molecules through an enzymatic course called glycosylation to augment their purpose. Of the four essential building blocks of life, proteins, carbohydrates (glycans), lipids and nucleic acids, glycans have expected the smallest consideration from scientists. Glycans are found in archaea, bacteria and eukaryotes, and their various functions contribute to physical and physical integrity, extracellular matrix formation, signal transduction, protein compact and data interchange amongst cells (and pathogens). Glycans are the chief molecule on the cell surface and attend as the first point of connection between a cell and other cells, the extracellular matrix and pathogens.

Glycobiology along with the arena of proteomics, mainly the submission of mass spectrometry investigation to protein samples, is well-established and increasing quickly. Proteomics readings beside with glycan’s make large volumes of raw experimental records and conditional biological outcomes. To accelerate the propagation of these statistics, centralized facts storehouses have been advanced that make the data and results accessible to proteomics researchers and biologists alike. Experimental analysis of proteomics data repositories concentrates totally on freely-available, centralized data properties that disseminate or store experimental mass spectrometry data and results.

Track: 8 Glycans in Diseases and Therapeutics

Glycomedicine functions as essential role in cell-cell adhesion i.e. a device used by cells of the immune system through sugar-binding proteins called lectins, which classify precise carbohydrate portions. Glycans (carbohydrate oligomers) are the so-called “building blocks” of carbohydrates, nucleic acids, proteins and lipids play leading roles in various biological phenomena as well as in numerous pathophysiological procedures. Several scientists have now understood that glycosylation, i.e. the count of glycans to a protein backbone, is the most plentiful post translational alteration responses and is a major field of research and sometimes they require a glycobiology method to be exploited.

Proteoglycans are more than 95% carbohydrate by weight. Proteoglycan supports to offer us with the knowledge to the molecule's several chemical compositions. As proteo mentions to protein, while glycan signifies sugar or a group of sugars, so proteoglycan is a long polysaccharide chain covalently committed to a protein. The protein element of proteoglycans is manufactured by ribosomes and mostly translocated into the lumen of the rough endoplasmic reticulum. Sialic acid is a generic term for the N- or O-substituted derivatives of neuraminic acid, a monosaccharide with a nine-carbon backbone and are found widely distributed in animal tissues and to a lesser level in some additional organisms, ranging from fungi, plants, yeasts and bacteria, mostly in glycoproteins and gangliosides.
