SimGlycan, an innovative MS/MS data analysis tool. The latest version now analyzes

Press Release Body: Palo Alto, California - (30 th April), PREMIER Biosoft
International today announced the release of a new version of its innovative MS/MS
data analysis tool, SimGlycan. With this release, SimGlycan can now analyze
glycopeptides in addition to released glycans.

SimGlycan matches the MS/MS spectra with its own comprehensive, robust and annotated
database to predict the structure of glycans. It generates a list of all the
probable glycans that are close to the experimental data saving time, money and the
frustration of laborious work. Each structure is scored to help the user judge which
results closely match the experimental data. Alongside the probable glycan
structure, important information such as the glycan class, reaction, pathway and
enzyme is also made available.

The new version will help users resolve glycan structures in glycopeptide molecules
by specifying the sequence or mass of the attached peptide moiety.
