Abstract
Hyaluronan is an extremely important polysaccharide from both the biol ogical and commercial points of view. This review summarizes the prese nt state of the art concerning the polymer and our understanding of th e molecular mechanisms of its synthesis with emphasis on the implicati ons of this understanding for polysaccharide engineering of hyaluronan .
