SimGlycan
High throughput glycan & glycopeptide identification tool for data from TripleTOF, MALDI TOF/TOF, LC-MS/MS systems
SimGlycan® predicts the structure of glycans
and glycopeptides from the MS/MS data
acquired by mass spectrometry.
Comprehensive support for resolving
glycopeptides obtained from an LC-MS/MS run
facilitating glycosylation studies. SimGlycan®
accepts experimental MS profiles, matches
them with its own database to generate a list of
candidate structures based on a robust scoring
mechanism. SimGlycan® also supports multi
stage mass spectrometry (MS
data analysis.
Robust Glycan& Glycopeptide Database
The SimGlycan® database is a
large relational database
containing 22,456 glycans, 22,814
glycoproteins, 11,438 glycans with
known biological sources, 11,918
glycans with known classes, 263
biochemical reactions, 194
biochemical pathways. The database is continuously updated as information on additional
glycans and glycopeptides is published.
Generate Annotated Spectrum
SimGlycan® highlights the experimental m/z values that match those of theoretical
fragments and generates an annotated spectrum. Each peak can be represented using
cartoons or Domon Costello nomenclature. It enables generating annotated spectra either
to fit on a page or based on area of interest and export plots as image files to MS
PowerPoint for sharing the findings with your colleagues.
User Drawn Structures
SimGlycan® enables users to draw and edit glycans and glycopeptides. A monosaccharide,
peptide chain or a substituent such as N-SO3, EtN can be added or deleted and branching
points and anomeric linkages can be modified at the click of a button. At each step, the
fragmentation of the drawn structure enables a user to compare the experimental and
theoretical data, enabling the user to see whether the modification brings theoretical glycan
closer to the experimental data. This feature greatly assists in resolving glycan structures.
Accurate Ranking
All possible glycan/glycopeptide structures are ranked and scored based on our proprietary
search and score mechanism. The ranking mechanism is based on calculating the
proximity score, which is a numerical representation of how closely the experimental
properties (composition and branching pattern) of the glycan match with those of glycans in
database.
