Draw Glycans

Complex glycans containing diverse monosaccharides and branched structures can be easily drawn using intuitive operations (SNFG* is supported).

The created diagrams and images can be used directly in research materials such as papers, manuscripts, and PowerPoint slides.

* SNFG (Symbol Nomenclature for Glycans) is a standardized notation for glycan structures recommended by the glycan scientific community.

Search Glycan Info

Based on the drawn glycan structure, users can retrieve related information—such as glycan-related genes, biological species, and 3D structures—from various databases with a single click.

Note: The database search function is currently available only in the browser-based version.
