GlyCosmos Overview

The GlyCosmos Portal is a Web portal aiming to integrate the glycosciences with the life sciences.
It consists of Standards, Repositories and Data Resources, providing information about genes, proteins, lipids, pathways and diseases.
GlyCosmos has been recognized as the official portal of the Japanese Society for Carbohydrate Research.

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

GlyTouCan
The Glycoconjugate repository GlyComb (TBA)

will assign accession numbers to glycoconjugates such as glycoproteins, glycolipids.
