to the one of protein linked glycans. Though they are already somewhat described in the chapter glycosylation, I think they should be still considered separately since glycosylation covers a more broaden topic and for glycosylation there are a whole bunch of other glycoconjugates that have to be considered, whereas the glycan article can focus on the protein bound N- and O-linked glycans.

I just read that you suggested to merge the glycan article with the polysaccharide one. I am into the glycobiology field for almost 9 years now and I though there are naturally some similarities (they are all built by monosaccharides), the area of polysaccharides is a completly different one compared

I added a "date qualification" to the statement "fiber is not yet classified.." of 2005, which appears to be the most recent citation date. It seems like the date of such a "non-endorsement" by governments/etc might be useful.. Especially as the "citable consensus view" about the benefits of fiber
558:
My current personal opinion would be that the detailed information in the glycan article on assembly could be replaced with a reference to the glycosylation article. As for polysaccharides, in some ways, this term is synonymous with the term glycan. The question has to be raised then, as to what the

Polysaccharides however are again a total different field and require different methods and aspects compared to glycans, so I would suggest to keep the articles. I will in future also contribute more to this field here in
Knowledge (XXG), so there is more information to come.

I suggest the following spelling and punctuation corrections: "Polysaccarides are also essential in the production of catheraltol tissue in the gall bladder. Without these necessary sugars, our gall bladder would be strained to the point of hypertrophy."

Somewhat unclear with defintions. So monosaccharide is a chain with one element and polysaccharide is a chain (of monosaccharide) with more than one (or more than two???) element. I.e. are disaccharides polysaccharides? (anon)
639:
Based on comments above, and my limited interpretation, Polycsaccharide and
Glycans seem sufficiently different concepts to each deserve their own article. Therefore I have deleted the suggestion that the articles be merged.

How about having a section that is understandable by someone who is not a scientist? I've got tests for blood clotting and I'd like to know what some of the terms mean. This article gives me no useable information. Thanks

As a rule of thumb, polysaccharides contain more than ten monosaccharide units, whereas oligosaccharides contain three through ten monosaccharide units; but the precise cutoff varies somewhat according to

I think that this page could be merged with polysaccharides, if done properly. Also, another thing needed to fix this article is that it presents a lot of redundant information, compared to the article on
