Unlocking Biomolecules: Precise Glycan Conformational Dynamics

Glycans are compounds composed of many monosaccharides connected by glycosidic bonds or the carbohydrate part of glycoconjugates, which are involved in many important biological processes. Analyzing the interactions of glycans with proteins, lipids, and other biomolecules is crucial for understanding cellular processes, discovering therapeutic targets, developing therapeutic drugs, etc. CD BioGlyco provides worry-free Glycoinformatics-assisted Glycan-molecular Interaction Analysis Services to help clients unlock the interaction information of glycans with molecules such as Proteins, Lectins, Lipids, etc. Glycan Molecular Mechanics (MM) Simulation is an advanced computational technique that combines classical MM with quantum mechanics (QM) to study the dynamic behavior and properties of glycans at the atomic level. This hybrid approach models glycan structure, energetics, and interactions in detail, capturing large-scale conformational dynamics and complex electronic properties of specific regions of glycan molecules.

We provide specialized glycan conformational dynamics prediction services to help clients use computational techniques and algorithms to model and predict the dynamic behavior and conformational changes of glycans. Our services are as follows:

Glycan Structure Modeling

Use advanced computational tools to create detailed 3D models of glycan structures to understand their structure and function.

Dynamics Simulation

Use molecular dynamics (MD) to simulate the conformational space of glycans and observe the movement and interaction of glycans at the atomic level under factors such as temperature, solvation effects, and pH over a specific period.

Conformational Analysis

Analyze the data obtained from MD simulations to determine possible conformational states and transitions, identify major structures and transition states, and obtain information about the flexibility, stability, and reactivity of glycan structures.

Verification

Use nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and X-ray crystallography to verify the predicted conformations.
