Excited to share our new paper! If you’re interested in glycoproteomics, be sure to check it out 👇

Huge kudos to all coauthors, especially the amazing glycoteam: Clement, @miraburtscher.bsky.social, Isabelle, and Misha (@savitski-lab.bsky.social)!
We are very happy to present our work on N-glycoproteomics!🍬 Our method enables the selective enrichment and precise quantification of intact N-glycopeptides to explore the dynamics of glycosylation microheterogeneity.
