Glycosylation databases

Glycosylation databases are specialized digital resources that store detailed information about sugars (glycans) attached to proteins and other molecules in living organisms. These attachments affect how molecules function, influence health, and play roles in diseases. The databases help researchers identify, compare, and understand these sugar structures, aiding in scientific studies and medical advancements. They organize data from experiments and provide tools for analyzing glycosylation patterns, making complex information accessible for research and diagnostic purposes.
