The SugarBind Database captures knowledge of glycan binding of human pathogen lectins and adhesins, where each glycan-protein binding pair is associated with at least one published reference. It provides information on the pathogen agent, the lectin/adhesin involved, and the human glycan ligand. This collection provides information on ligands.

Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local identifiers in SugarBind should match this regular expression:
^[A-Za-z]+\/[0-9]+$

Example Local Unique Identifier

lectins/172   Resolve

Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from SugarBind should match this regular expression:
^sugarbind:[A-Za-z]+\/[0-9]+$

Example CURIE

sugarbind:lectins/172

The metaregistry provides mappings between the Bioregistry and other registries. There are 7 mappings to external registries for this resource with 3 unique external prefixes.

A provider turns a local unique identifiers from a resource into a URI. Many providers are also resolvable as URLs (i.e., they can be used in a web browser).

The local unique identifier lectins/172 is used to demonstrate the providers available for SugarBind. A guide for curating additional providers can be found here.
