Glycan 3D database and toolbox for the reconstruction of glycoproteins from the RCSB PDB and EMBL-EBI AlphaFold repositories or own. Find us at https://glycoshape.org. Curated by head chef @elisafadda.bsky.social and sous chef @ojas-singh.bsky.social
To wish our friend and main O-glycan 3D structure contributor extraordinaire @silviadandrea.bsky.social all the best with the submission of her PhD thesis tomorrow, today's 🥄🍬 is dedicated to sialic acid 💜 with a mini 🧵 about all the wonderful functions Silvia worked on

Today we used Re-Glyco to rebuild human EPO from AF-P01588 with glycosylation selected from Lippold et al [10.1021/acs.analchem.0c01794] From the 3D structure we identified ideal locations for extra N-glycans, some of which are actually in NESP [10.1054/bjoc.2001.1746]
Super fun 3D edu #glycotime!

Glycan structures can be very complex and deceivingly similar, yet they have unique GlyTouCan IDs[1] that you can find by drawing the glycan you need in gb.glytoucan.org or in the glycoshape.org sugar drawer 1/3 🧵
