Computational tools for drawing, building and displayingcarbohydrates: a visual guide / K. Lal, R. Bermeo Malo, S. Perez. - In: BEILSTEIN JOURNAL OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY. - ISSN 1860-5397. - 2020:16(2020 Oct 02), pp. 2448-2468. [10.3762/bjoc.16.199]
Abstract:
Drawing and visualisation of molecular structures are some of the most common tasks carried out in structural glycobiology, typi-cally using various software. In this perspective article, we outline developments in the computational tools for the sketching, visu-alisation and modelling of glycans. The article also provides details on the standard representation of glycans, and glycoconjugates,which helps the communication of structure details within the scientific community. We highlight the comparative analysis of theavailable tools which could help researchers to perform various tasks related to structure representation and model building ofglycans. These tools can be useful for glycobiologists or any researcher looking for a ready to use, simple program for the sketchingor building of glycans
