This study examines the evolution of H1N1 influenza viruses over five decades, revealing conserved glycan receptor specificity despite amino acid changes in the hemagglutinin.

The paper identifies potential ambiguities in glycoRNA analysis by showing that RNase sensitivity of glycosylated RNA species depends on purification methods, suggesting co-purification of non-glycoRNA glycoconjugates.

This paper develops a chemoenzymatic method to precisely glyco-tag proteins, enabling the modification of therapeutic proteins with diverse glycans while maintaining their biological activity.
