FAIRsharing record for: Glycomics Ontology

This FAIRsharing record describes: The GlycO ontology provides an up-to-date knowledge base of experimentally verified glycan structures. Glycan (oligosaccharide or polysaccharide) structures are represented as trees of monosaccharide residues. Linkage to proteins and lipids is supported as well. Insertion of a new glycan is controlled by curation process that includes matching the new glycan against a canonical glyco-tree (a highly branched representation for a family of glycans).
