Abstract:
Carbohydrate-based combinatorial libraries are tremendously valuable for studying the role of sugars in biology and for expanding accessible molecular diversity needed in broad-based drug screening programs. This review discusses the issues that are relevant to the successful implementation of comprehensive carbohydrate-based combinatorial library programs. In addition, details of oligosaccharide and glycoconjugate libraries constructed using both solid phase and solution phase strategies are presented.

Combinatorial Gene Control
The expression of more than 30,000 genes is controlled by approximately 2000-3000 transcription factors. This is possible because a single transcription factor can recognize more than one regulatory sequence. The specificity in gene...
