Understanding the functions of protein glycosylation critically depends on methods to efficiently enrich glycoproteins from complex samples. Here, the authors develop a strategy using dendrimer-conjugated benzoboroxole to enhance glycopeptide enrichment, providing the basis for more comprehensive glycoprotein analyses.
