Product (Database, Tool)

SGCAL

Summary We have developed a web-based tool named SGCAL (Structural Glycomics CALculations). SGCAL is capable of building a 3D structure from oligosaccharide sequence information and of visualizing the calculated results and the experimental MS data, thereby supporting investigations on correlations between the structure of oligosaccharides and their fragmentation patterns.
Data type Sugar chain
