Bacteria are covered in sugars that facilitate the establishment of pathogenic or symbiotic relationships with other cells. Microarrays of carbohydrate-binding proteins now can provide quick snapshots of these sugar coats as they change during the bacterial life cycle and differ among bacterial strains.
