The inside cover picture shows glycan‐sequence‐dependent human Nod2 recognition of PGN fragments. On p. 482 ff. , Y. Fujimoto, K. Fukase, et al. report how they chemically synthesized a range of di‐ or tetrasaccharide fragments of PGN, and showed that (MurNAcβ(1→4)GlcNAc) 2 ‐containing structures exhibited stronger activity than those containing (GlcNAcβ(1→4)MurNAc) 2 , produced with different enzymatic degradation process.
