Glycome Informatics: Methods and Applications

A Focused, State-of-the-Art Overview of This Evolving Field
Presents Various Techniques for Glycoinformatics

The development and use of informatics tools and databases for glycobiology and glycomics research have increased considerably in recent years. In addition to accumulating well-structured glyco-related data, researchers have now developed semi-automated methods for the annotation of mass spectral data and algorithms for capturing patterns in glycan structure data. These techniques have...
