GlycobioInformatics Portals

List of portals that are commonly used for glycobioinformatics analysis. (see: Publication, chapter 16 (page 323-375), for a short description)

Glyco@ExPaSy

As a member of the GlySpace Alliance, this is a Gateway to multiple resources, a part of Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics (SIB) resources; also includes GlyConnect. (see: Expasy, which provides multiple resources including Glyco@ExPaSy).

GlyCosmos

As a member of the GlySpace Alliance, this portal provides Glycome database Supported by the Japanese Society of Carbohydrate Research (JSCR).

Glyco3D

A portal with multiple databases including databases with glycan and lectin structures.

GlyGen

As a member of the GlySpace Alliance, this project aims at data integration and dissemination.

KEGG Glycan

Gateway to multiple resources including genes and diseases.

NCFG

Gateway to multiple resources for glycome research. This also provides access to the legacy data generated by the Consortium of Function Glycomics (CFG).
