Funded Activity Summary

A Glycobiology Facility for Glycoconjugate Analysis and Oligosaccharide Sequencing. The carbohydrate moiety of glycoconjugates plays an important role in their function and metabolism. Advances in glycan analytical and oligosaccharide sequencing techniques offer tremendous potential for the application of glycobiology to biotechnology, cell biology and medicine. This application aims to establish a Glycobiology Facility dedicated to glycoconjugate analysis and oligosaccharide sequencing. Funds are requested for state of the art HPLC equipment, associated equipment and reagents for glycan purification/labelling, and a staff member, that are all essential to establish this technology in Australia. The Facility will support $25 million of existing research; approximately half of which is derived from ARC.
