PRZOOM - /newswire/ - Palo Alto, CA, United States, 2006/11/14 - PREMIER Biosoft International releases SimGlycan, an innovative glycan mass fingerprinting tool. SimGlycan predicts the glycan structure by matching the experimental mass spec profile with its own comprehensive and robust database .

PREMIER Biosoft International today announced the release of its new product, SimGlycan. SimGlycan is an innovative glycan fragment mass fingerprinting tool. SimGlycan predicts the structure of a glycan from the MS/MS data acquired by mass spectrometry and displays it in 2D.

SimGlycan predicts the structure of a glycan from the MS/MS data acquired by mass spectrometry, facilitating glycosylation and post translational modification studies. SimGlycan accepts the experimental MS profiles generated by a mass spectrometer, matches them with its own database of theoretical fragmentation of over 7,000 glycans and generates a list of probable glycan structures. Each structure is scored to reflect how closely it matches your experimental data. Other biological information for the probable glycan structures such as the glycan class, reaction, pathway and enzyme are also made available for easy reference.

SimGlycan matches your MS/MS spectra with its own comprehensive, robust and annotated database to predict the structure of the glycan. It generates a list of all the probable glycans that are close to your experimental data saving you the time, the money and the frustration of laborious work. Each structure is scored to help you judge which results closely match your experimental data. Alongside the probable glycan structure important information such as the glycan class, reaction, pathway and enzyme is also made available.
