Glycosyltransferases, glycoside hydrolases: surprise, surprise!
Several in the field-and many outside-consider that solving the three-dimensional structures of more glycoside hydrolases (GHs) and glycosyltransferases (GTs) confines to stamp collection and some even think that there is no main revelation to expect in this area. It is wrong! The past year has come as a refreshing wake-up call with major surprises for both GHs and GTs.
