You can use Quick-URLs to easily access certain parts of GLYCAM-Web. Quick URLs are short codes you can append to “legacy.glycam.org” to directly access a portion of the site.
For example, these are all Quick URLs:
- legacy.glycam.org/downloads – the downloads page
- legacy.glycam.org/cb – the Carbohydrate builder
- legacy.glycam.org/params – the parameters page
Throughout the site, look for buttons to the left of a title and some descriptive text. If the button contains a short abbreviation for the title, then that short abbreviation is the part you need to add to “legacy.glycam.org/” to make the Quick URL.
For example, from the following information about the High Mannose Oligosaccharide Library, you would know that legacy.glycam.org/hmlib will take you directly to that library.
| High Mannose | High mannose structures containing only mannose and glucose in bi- and tri-antennary structures linked to an N-acetyl-glucosamine core |
