Glycosaminoglycans are the main structural polysaccharides of vertebrates, and represent a major barrier to the spread of both bacterial infection and tumours. The enzymes by which mammals and pathogens degrade these polysaccharides use very different mechanisms, and may represent suitable therapeut...
