• glycoproteins Several experimental techniques can be used to obtain 3D structures of glycoproteins: X-ray crystallography (MX, which stands for macromolecular crystallography), nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) and electron cryomicroscopy (cryo-EM). As of publication date, the overwhelming majority
