About customer glycan database design #26

Closed glycohezhu closed 5 years ago

glycohezhu commented 5 years ago

Hi Sir, thank you for your effort in developing pglyco. 1) I wonder how did you guys design the glycan database. Is there a code or other program to do this? Actually, I carefully check the glycan database. If you manually do it, that should be a huge work. Besides the bracket to define the specific glycan structure, there is also a lot of theoretical glycan fragmentation ions.
2) Could I define a new monosaccharide in the database? 3) Could I remove the bracket for glycan composition and just define the composition like H5N4F1A1? 4) Could I remove all the theoretical glycan fragmentation ions in the data base?

@glycohezhu Current version of pGlyco does not support custom glycans, so the answers for your 4 questions are NO.

@jalew188 Got it, Dr. Zeng. Thank you.
