The Mass Spectral Database of Glycans and Glycopeptides provides critical insights into the glycosylation patterns of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). With a global market exceeding $20 billion, and over 30 approved mAbs, their efficacy and safety heavily rely on glycan structures. This resource facilitates in-depth glycan analysis through advanced mass spectrometry techniques, addressing the challenges posed by heterogeneous glycosylation. The database includes profiling of N-glycans from serum glycoproteins, aiding drug development and ensuring therapeutic effectiveness.
