Carbohydrates structures in the Carbohydrate Structure Database have been referenced to glycoepitopes from the Immune Epitope Database allowing users to explore the glycan structures in the context of epitopes they contain. Starting with an epitope, one can figure out the glycans from other organisms that share the same structural fragment, and retrieve the associated taxonomical, medical and other data. This database mapping demonstrates the advantages of integration of immunological and glycomic databases.
