Standards
WURCS

A text representation for glycan structures aimed for use in the Semantic Web.

WURCS
GlycoRDF

A standard ontology for RDFizing glycomics data (glycan structures, publications, experimental data, and source).

GlycoCoO

A standard ontology for RDFizing glycoconjugate data (glycoproteins/glycolipids, glycan abundance ratios, sample information, diseases, publication information, etc.)


Repositories
The glycan structure repository GlyTouCan

assigning accession numbers to glycans.
