Bioorganic Chemistry Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that uses chemistry to create glycans, which are chains of linked sugars.
AboutAbout the lab
Chemically synthesizing glycans that have biological functions.
The Bioorganic Chemistry Lab is a lab in the Department of Applied Biological Chemistry, Faculty of Horticulture, that researches the chemical synthesis of glycans.
Associate Professor Hirofumi Dohi specializes in glycoengineering and organic chemistry, and works on the synthesis and functionalization of natural glycans that act in the body, as well as glycans not found in nature.
The lab is located in Natural Sciences Comprehensive Research Building 2 on the Nishi-Chiba Campus, not on the Matsudo Campus where the Faculty of Horticulture is based.
Key terms
- Glycan
- A molecule made of many sugars, such as glucose, linked together. On cell surfaces and elsewhere, it serves as a marker or signal.
- Organic chemistry
- A field of chemistry that studies how to make compounds built on a carbon framework, and what properties they have.
ResearchResearch themes
The lab specializes in glycoengineering and organic chemistry. It works on the synthesis and functionalization of oligosaccharide chains that act in the body, both natural and non-natural.
