Consists of critical reviews and original research papers from the 2014 International Symposium on the Biochemical Role of Eukaryotic Cell Surface Macromolecules. Topics covered include: * neurochemical and biochemical analysis of cell surface glycoconjugates * membrane skeletal organization * GPCRs and other receptors * biophysical approaches to study membrane interactions * glycoconjugate metabolism * dysregulation * molecular mechanisms involved in cell-cell and cell-matrix interaction * glycans in infectious and neurological diseases * cancer and glycosyltransferases as drug targets.

Cell surface molecules are critically important in regulating cell structure and function. Recent advances on the functional role of cell surface molecules, particularly glycoconjugates are presented in this book. Comprising of 22 chapters from the 2011 International Symposium on Biochemical Roles of Eukaryotic Cell Surface Macromolecules, it covers topics on the analysis of glycome, biophysical approaches to study cell surface molecules, glycoconjugate metabolism and its dysregulation, and molecular mechanisms involved in cell-cell and cell-matrix interaction.
