The Complex Carbohydrate Structure Database (CCSD) and CarbBank offer a centralized information system for carbohydrate science research. These databases are expanding to include comprehensive data on complex carbohydrate structures.

Area of Science:

Carbohydrate Chemistry
Bioinformatics
Structural Biology

Background:

Existing information systems do not adequately meet the needs of carbohydrate science researchers.
A comprehensive resource for complex carbohydrate structures is lacking.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop and provide an integrated information system for carbohydrate science.
To create accessible databases for carbohydrate structure information.

Main Methods:

Development of the Complex Carbohydrate Structure Database (CCSD).
Implementation of CarbBank, a database management system.
Data curation and integration of published carbohydrate structures.

Main Results:

The CCSD currently contains over 2000 citations.

The database is projected to double in size within two years.

Future inclusion of all published carbohydrate structures larger than disaccharides is planned.

Conclusions:

The CCSD and CarbBank provide a valuable information system for the carbohydrate science community.
These databases are essential tools for researchers studying complex carbohydrate structures.
The ongoing expansion ensures a comprehensive and up-to-date resource.
