Glycosciences.de - glycoinformatics databases and tools
The Glycosciences.de web portal provides databases and tools to support glycobiology and glycomics research.
Its main focus is on 3D structures, including 3D structure models as well as references to PDB entries that feature carbohydrates.
These PDB references enable a targeted search for PDB structures with specific glycans.
Such a search cannot be performed easily at the PDB itself.
NMR spectra, notation related tools, and further resources are also available.
