The Front Cover shows the formation of a new fused heterocycle derived from furanose saccharide. This reaction is possible thanks to deoxyfunctionalisation event through an intramolecular thermal Minisci reaction. cover image was inspired by creatures named Susuwatari, created Studio Ghibli for some their films.

The heparan sulfate proteoglycan of the bovine glomerular basement membrane (Mr = 200,000, 30% carbohydrate by weight) has been deglycosylated by various chemical and enzymatic procedures to identify the core protein and provide information about the N- and O-linked saccharide units. Heparitinase digestion of the proteoglycan reduced its Mr to 143,000, consistent with the removal of its four gl...
