Glycoproteins

糖蛋白

英文解释

Glycoproteins are proteins that contain oligosaccharide chains. A glycoprotein exists as a heterogeneous mixture of forms due to differential glycosylation, each of which may confer different functionality and/or serve as a biochemical marker for disease.

中文解释

糖蛋白是含有寡糖链的蛋白质。由于差异糖基化，糖蛋白以多种形式的异质混合物存在，每种形式都可能赋予不同的功能和/或用作疾病的生化标记。
