Supramolecular glycopolymers: how carbohydrates matter in structure, dynamics, and function

Article / Letter to editor
Supramolecular glycopolymers exhibiting inherent dynamicity, tunability, and adaptivity allow us to arrive at a deeper understanding of multivalent carbohydrate-carbohydrate interactions and carbohydrate-protein interactions, both being essential to key biological events. The impacts of the carbohydrate segments in these supramolecular glycopolymers towards their structure, dynamics, and function as biomaterials are addressed in this minireview. Bottlenecks and challenges are discussed, and we speculate about possible future directions.
