Invitation to Submit
The Journal of Glycomics and Metabolism invites original manuscripts spanning all areas of glycobiology, carbohydrate biochemistry, and metabolic pathway research. We publish rigorous, peer-reviewed research that advances scientific understanding of glycan structures, protein glycosylation, metabolic regulation, and their implications for human health and disease.
Our editorial team welcomes contributions from researchers worldwide investigating fundamental glycoscience mechanisms and translational applications. Quality and scientific rigor guide our evaluation, ensuring published work meets international standards while remaining accessible to the global research community through our gold open-access model.
Topics of Interest
Glycan Structure and Function
N-glycan and O-glycan biosynthesis, glycoprotein characterization, glycolipid metabolism, lectin biology, and glycan-mediated cell signaling pathways affecting cellular recognition and immune responses.
Metabolic Biochemistry
Carbohydrate metabolism, lipid biochemistry, amino acid pathways, metabolic flux analysis, enzyme kinetics, and regulatory mechanisms controlling metabolic networks in health and disease states.
Analytical Methods
Mass spectrometry glycan analysis, chromatographic separation techniques, lectin-based detection methods, metabolomics profiling, and computational approaches to glycan structure prediction and pathway modeling.
Clinical Applications
Glycan biomarkers in cancer and inflammation, metabolic disorders including diabetes and obesity, therapeutic glycoprotein development, drug metabolism studies, and glycan-targeted therapeutics.
Special Issue Opportunities
