Glycomics or Glycobiology is the study of structure, biology, and function of saccharides which are widely distributed in nature and regarded as glycans as well. Glycans are found in all living organisms. Glycobiology is a rapidly progressing biological area of interest for various fields like biotechnology, biomedicine, and basic research. Most proteins are revised after the translation process in eukaryotic cells. The attachment of glycans is one of the most usual modifications for cell viability. There are two forms of glycosylation 1) N-linked glycosylation: when glycan is attached to asparagines 2) O-linked glycosylation: when the glycan is attached to a serine or threonine.
Glycobiology has a vast range of applicability like diagnostics, oncology, drug discovery & development, immunology, and various other applications. Glycomics is a widely emerging scientific field highlighting on defining functional aspects of glycans in biosystems.
COVID-19 scenario analysis:
Pharmaceutical and biotech companies together with governments around the globe are working to address the COVID-19 outbreak, from supporting the development of vaccines to planning for medicines supply chain challenges. Currently, around 115 vaccine candidates and 155 molecules are in the R&D pipeline. Moreover, commonly used drugs such as Hydroxychloroquine have witnessed a dramatic surge in demand for the management of COVID-19. Such high demand for these drugs has presented huge opportunities for manufacturers of COVID-19 management drugs, as many developed countries are short of these drugs.
