The biological significance of glycans has been widely studied and reported in the past. However, most achievements of our predecessors are not readily available in existing databases. JCGGDB is a meta-database involving 15 original databases in AIST and 5 cooperative databases in alliance with JCGG: Japan Consortium for Glycobiology and Glycotechnology. It centers on a glycan structure database and accumulates information such as glycan preferences of lectins, glycosylation sites in proteins, and genes related to glycan syntheses from glycoscience and related fields. This chapter illustrates how to use three major search interfaces (Keyword Search, Structure Search, and GlycoChem Explorer) available in JCGGDB to search across multiple databases.
