Instructions

This software implements the Symbol Nomenclature For Glycans (SNFG). To use:
1.Type glycan or glycopeptide string in standard IUPAC-condensed nomenclature (see examples)
2.Change basic and advanced options, if necessary .
3.Press "Draw" to sketch.
4.Right click sketch to save figure.

Source code, standalone version and packages compiled in Java and Python supporting Windows, Mac and Linux operating systems are available at Sourceforge.net. Follow the link at this page for downloads. Instructional videos and program source code are also provided.
