<p>Glycans (carbohydrates, sugars, monosaccharides, oligosaccharides and polysaccharides) are widely distributed in nature, in all living life forms. There is much useful glycoscience content at NCBI, including many <a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?term=(GLYCOBIOLOGY+OR+GLYCOSYL*+OR+COMPLEX+CARBOHYDRATE*+OR+OLIGOSACCH*+OR+GLYCOCONJUGATE+OR+GLYCAN+OR+N-LINKED+OR+O-LINKED+OR+GLYCOLIPID+OR+GLYCOSPHINGOLIPID+OR+GANGLIOSIDE+OR+PROTEOGLYCAN+OR+GLYCOSAMINO*+OR+FUCOS*+OR+MANNOS*+OR+GALACTOS*+OR+XYLOS*+OR+GLUCURON*+OR+GLUCOSAMIN*+OR+GALACTOSAMIN*+OR+ACETYLGLUCOSAMIN*+OR+ACETYLGALACTOSAMIN*+OR+SIALIC+OR+SIALYL*+OR+NEURAMIN*+OR+LECTIN+OR+SELECTIN+OR+GALECTIN+OR+SIGLEC+OR+NUCLEOTIDE+SUGAR)">publications</a> discussing glycans, <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pccompound/?term=glycan+or+carbohydrate+or+saccharide+or+polysaccharide+or+oligosaccharide+or+monosaccharide">chemical records</a> containing glycans, <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/structure/?term=glycan+or+carbohydrate+or+sugar+or+saccharide+or+polysaccharide+or+oligosaccharide+or+monosaccharide">macromolecules</a> containing glycans, <a href="https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/#query=glycan&tab=pathway">biosynthetic pathways</a> involving glycans, <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/protein/?term=glycan+or+carbohydrate+or+sugar+or+saccharide+or+polysaccharide+or+oligosaccharide+or+monosaccharide">proteins</a> and <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/?term=glycan+or+carbohydrate+or+sugar+or+saccharide+or+polysaccharide+or+oligosaccharide+or+monosaccharide">genes</a> involved in glycobiology, <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/medgen/?term=glycan+or+carbohydrate+or+sugar+or+saccharide+or+polysaccharide+or+oligosaccharide+or+monosaccharide">diseases</a> involving glycans, and books dedicated to <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/?term=glycobiology">glycoscience</a>.
