Weak carbohydrate-carbohydrate interactions in membrane adhesion are fuzzy and generic

Carbohydrates such as the trisaccharide motif Le X are key constituents of cell surfaces. Despite intense research, the interactions between carbohydrates of apposing cells or membranes are not well understood. In this article, we investigate carbohydrate-carbohydrate interactions in membrane adhesi...
