title: Synthesis of glycopeptides.
abstract: Oligosaccharides in protein play important roles in several biological events. In order to investigate the functions of oligosaccharides of protein, glycoproteins having homogeneous oligosaccharides should be prepared. For this purpose, preparation methods of diverse complex-type oligosaccharides as well as synthetic methods of glycopeptides are essential. This report describes the recent progress in the synthesis of glycopeptides having homogeneous complex-type sialyloligosaccharides.
