摘要
Here we review current knowledge of helminth glycans and introduce parasitologists to the power of the mass spectrometric techniques that have been largely responsible for defining their carbohydrate moieties. A brief overview of glycosylation in other eukaryotes is presented, with a focus on mammalian glycosylation, to facilitate understanding of how parasite structures might be recognized as 'self' or 'foreign' by the immune system of the host.
