Glycoproteomics analysis utilizing glycoinformatics integrates glycan and proteomics data to enhance the comprehensive understanding of glycoprotein structure, function, and interactions. CD BioGlyco has the expertise and specialists to provide clients with a comprehensive Glycoinformatics-assisted Glycomics Analysis Service, which includes Disease Glycomics, Glycogenomics, Glycolipidomics, Glycometabolomics, and glycoproteomics. Our glycoinformatics-assisted glycoproteomics analysis service encompasses a wide range of services, including but not limited to the following:
We provide glycoinformatics-based identification and analysis of gene and protein expression for glycosyltransferases. Our experts use the information provided by the glycosyltransferase database, including enzyme name, EC number, organism, nucleotide access number, expression profiles, amino acid sequences, and biochemical reactions, to understand the structure of the glycans formed by the glycosyltransferases and to infer their function and regulatory mechanisms in glycoproteomics. Meanwhile, the information provided by the glycosyltransferase database, such as nucleotide access numbers and amino acid sequences, is utilized to research the synthesis and regulatory mechanisms of glycosyltransferases.
Based on various databases and tools, we provide glycan analysis, 3D structure modeling, and rapid conversion of complex glycan sequences into reliable 3D molecular models for molecular dynamics simulations. Simultaneously, we conduct investigations into compound data within databases to enable the linkage of glycomics and proteomics data, thereby enhancing our ability to offer superior glycan analysis services.

Results: This article is about glycobiology and glycoproteomics based on glycoinformatics. The study of glycobiology and glycoproteomics is more complex compared to the study of genome and proteome because the diversity and branching nature of glycans make the study more difficult. In addition, glycan expression is affected by a variety of factors, such as differences in the expression of glycosyltransferases and glucosidases in different cells and tissues, and glycan chains on the same protein are associated with cells, tissues, organisms, and physiological states. Therefore, deciphering information about glycosylation sites, attached glycan chain structures, protein scaffolds, and associated glycosyltransferases is essential for understanding the biological functions of glycosylation. With improved analytical methods, including high-performance separation techniques and mass spectrometry-based analysis, qualitative and quantitative data on glycans, glycosylation sites, glycopeptides, and glycoproteins have greatly increased. In addition, the widespread use of lectin microarrays, glycan microarrays, and glycogen microarrays has greatly increased data on sugar-protein interactions and glyco-genomes. Therefore, the development of databases and informatics tools to store, retrieve, integrate, and interpret these data is one of the most active areas in glycobiology.
