GlycoShape @glycoshape.org · 02/12/2025
3/3 GlycoShape is an open access library of glycan structures from MD simulations that gives users all the diff structures significantly occupied at equilibrium and tools to reconstruct the target glycoproteins with a single representative conformer (Re-Glyco) or multiple (Re-Glyco Ensemble)
TC-TPA residues 311-562 in white, 50 conformers selected from the highest populated clusters from the analysis of the MD trajectory and not at random (new Re-Glyco Ensemble now on glycoshape.org) are shown in dark blue with wires, and the envelope in cyan is represented by QuickSurf to represent the approximate excluded volume (VMD used for rendering). You can select up to 500 frames in Advanced Settings
