Describe the general problem:
the sequence supplied by glycanbuilder supplies default reducing terminal
positions (of 1) to all residues, which means the substructure query engine
generates predicates for the '1' position, which is OK most of the time,
but means that structure with unknown reducing terminal positions *won't*
be matched.
to get around this, the query engine ignores reducing terminal positions of
<= 1, which is mostly ok, though when it comes to residues that don't have
'1' as a default position, such as NeuAc and other sialics, which use
default position == 2, the problem persists.
What URLs, actions, classes/methods, templates, tables or other
functionality do you think or know are associated with the problem?
GlycanBuilder applet Glycoct sequence generation code.
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
expected output would be *no* residue linkage information if none is
supplied by the user.
