The Glycan Tree Type Identifier identifies the tree type of an N-glycan using the WURCS code. There are four possible outputs:
- High mannose
- Complex
- Hybrid
- Unsuitable core glycan
Unsuitable core glycan represents a glycan chain which is too short to designate as high mannose, complex or hybrid.
The most up to date scripts are in the /scripts folder. To run the glycan composition identifier: python glycan_tree_type_identifier.py --wurcs "WURCS=2.0/1,1,0/[a2122h-1b_1-5_2*NCC/3=O]/1/"
