Description:

This book is the first dedicated to the bioinformatics of carbohydrates and glycoproteins. It provides a state-of-the-art overview and demonstrates the value of bioinformatics for glycobiology, not simply as a review of databases and tools but rather as an introduction to a new branch of glycobiology. Efficient bioinformatics descriptions and tools can considerably enhance the efficiency of glycomics research, in terms of data quality, analysis and experimental costs. This book illustrates ways to use bioinformatics to enhance glycomics data mining and improve glycomics analysis.
