Lee et al. describe the generation of aglycosylated antibody-producing mice. These aglycosylated antibodies, lacking glycans prevent unwanted interactions with the lectins, and are used as reagents in a tool they developed called ALIQUAT. This aglycosylated antibody and lectin-based immunoassay diagnostic platform can be used to detect disease specific glycan biomarkers.
