Abstract

Glycorandomization is a chemoenzymatic strategy that overcomes the limitations in natural product derivatization associated with both solely chemistry-based approaches or in vivo engineering. In this article we present the basic strategies for glycorandomization development as a next-generation tool in drug discovery.
