- W2032250003 abstract "As time has passed, knowledge of the seminal contributions of Dr. Meyer to glycobiology and the burgeoning area of proteoglycan research have become less familiar to those in the field. In this issue, Glycobiology is pleased to reproduce a perspective on Dr. Meyer prepared by one of the first awardees, Dr. Vincent Hascall. How well I remember my confusion in 1991. I was presenting Dr. Ulf Lindahl to the Society for Complex Carbohydrates as the first Karl Meyer awardee when I learned, quite unexpectedly, that there were to be two awards granted. I felt very honored when I understood that the second award was for me! In the intervening years since Lindahl and I became the first awardees for our work with glycosaminoglycans and proteoglycans, the award has been granted to a stellar series of researchers who have established the breadth and depth of what is now glycobiology. Karl Meyer (see Figure 1) is often considered the father of glycosaminoglycan research. His contributions to our knowledge of the structures of hyaluronan, chondroitin sulfate, and keratan sulfate (three of the four classes of glycosaminoglycans) certainly merit such consideration, and it is very appropriate for the society to honor his work and his memory through the award that bears his name. The perspective that follows was first presented as a poster at Hyaluronan 2000, an international meeting held in Wrexham, Wales (Kennedy et al., 2002). It provides an overview of Meyer and his work in the context of his time. It focuses on hyaluronan, the simplest of the glycosaminoglycans, and the molecule that continues to amaze those of us who work with it for its diversity and importance in a wide variety of normal and pathological processes. On behalf of the recipients of this singular honor, I hope you will enjoy this perspective and pause to reflect on Meyer's seminal contributions at the annual Society for Glycobiology meeting each year when the new honoree receives the Karl Meyer Award. At the time that Meyer initiated his pioneering research on hyaluronan, previous work had been done in the area that he no doubt knew of and found useful in placing his work in its proper context. A French chemist, Portes, reported in 1880 that a ``mucin'' isolated from vitreous differed from similar preparations from cornea and cartilage in its behavior in acid solutions, and he called it a Fig. 1.
