Abstract

This work presents the first part of a database of conformations for all the disaccharide fragments that are found inN-glycans. The conformational study of the five disaccharides found in the oligo-mannose type are presented here. For each disaccharide, several possible conformations are described. A method is presented to obtain realistic models of oligosaccharides using molecular mechanic methods. Analysis of some possible conformations of the oligo-mannose type glycan Man6-GlcNAc2 is given as an illustration of the possibilities.
