| Abstract | With the support of the Chemistry of Life Processes (CLP) program in the Division of Chemistry, Professor Danielle Dube from Bowdoin College is developing sugar probes to facilitate the study of bacterial carbohydrates. Bacteria coat their cell surfaces with a dense array of complex sugars, termed glycans, that are critically important for bacteria to interact with other cells and to survive. Despite the importance of bacterial glycans in bacterial survival, their systematic study and perturbati |
