Overview

This reference book features the characterization and application of endoglycosidases. The monograph, which covers most of the endoglycosidases that act on glycoconjugates, is authored mainly by those researchers who discovered them. To assist students in obtaining a better understanding of the enzymes, the book also provides a general introduction to sugars and enzymes as well as the stories of their discovery.
