These interactions play a fundamental role in many of the cell&#8217;s biological processes. One important function is the modulation of the immune response towards an outside threat. In a recent Nature Chemical Biology paper, ICMS researchers team up with researchers from Leiden University to unravel the interactions of individual sugar molecules with cells using super-resolution microscopy.&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n Click here for original story, <a href=\"https:\/\/phys.org\/news\/2021-11-unraveling-interactions-individual-sugar-molecules.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Unraveling the interactions of individual sugar molecules with cells<\/a>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource: Phys.org&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sugars interact with the cell surface through sugar-binding proteins called lectins.
