. Peracetylated unnatural sugars…… the “arrows” used by glycoscientists for decades to
label cellular glycans, can induce artificial cysteine glycosylation on various proteins, as
reported in the Communication on page 1817 ff. by C. Wang, X. Chen et al. This “off-
targeting” of the per-O-acetylated sugar reporters can be likened to Cao Cao shooting
arrows at scarecrows and straw boats in the fictitious story “Romance of the Three
Kingdoms”, and calls for caution in the use of peracetylated sugars and the development of …
