In histology, the study of glycoproteins involves:
Microscopy: Techniques like light and electron microscopy are used to visualize glycoproteins at the cellular and subcellular levels. Biochemical Assays: Methods such as Western blotting and mass spectrometry are employed to analyze glycoprotein structure and function. Genetic Approaches: Molecular biology techniques, including gene editing and knockouts, help in understanding the role of glycoproteins in various biological processes.
