Wanyi GuanWanyi Guan is an associate professor in the College of Life Science, Heibei Normal University, China. She received her PhD from Shandong University in 2011 in Microbiology and Glycobiology. During her joint PhD program at Ohio State University, she fcused on substrate specificity study of enzymes involving in salvage pathway of UDP-GlcNAc/UDP-GalNAc synthesis, large-scale chemoenzymatic synthesis of UDP-GlcNAc/UDP-GalNAc and their analogs, as well as the application of the sugar nucleotide analogs. She joined the faculty of College of Life Science, Hebei Normal University, China in 2011 as a lecturer, and was promoted to associate professor in 2013. Dr Guan is currently a postdoctoral research fellow in Department of Chemistry, Georgia State University. Her research interests involve the isolation of abundant glycans from natural sources, and enzymatic synthesis of glycans with glycosyltransferases (especially mammalian glycosyltransferases whose functions are unique from bacterial glycosyltransferases).
