The series of lectures „Glycoconjugate and Immunochemistry“ include the actual knowledge in the field of
glycoproteins, glycolipids, proteoglycans and other glycoconjugates and their biological and biochemical aspects,
biosynthesis, and roles in different diseases. Methods for detection and characterization of glycoproteins and
glycopeptides are discussed as well.
Lectures are in Czech, slides in English.
