GLYC000001	Methyl-α-D-glucopyranose	194.18 g/mol	C₇H₁₄O₆	Methyl-α-D-glucopyranose is a synthetic compound that is used in scientific research to study glucose transport mechanisms in cells. It is a glucose analog in which a methyl group (-CH3) replaces the hydroxyl group (-OH) at the alpha (α) carbon position	N/A	Monosaccharide
GLYC000002	Methyl-β-D-glucopyranose	194.18 g/mol	C₇H₁₄O₆	Methyl-β-D-glucopyranoside is a synthetic glucose analog where a methyl group (-CH3) replaces the hydroxyl group (-OH) in the beta (β) anomeric configuration.	N/A	Monosaccharide
GLYC000003	D-Glucose	180.16 g/mol	C₆H₁₂O₆	D-glucose, often simply referred to as glucose, is a simple sugar (monosaccharide) and one of the most important carbohydrates in biology. It is a fundamental source of energy for living organisms, including humans. The "D" in D-glucose stands for "dextrorotary," indicating the specific rotation of its optical isomer.	N/A	Monosaccharide
GLYC000004	GlcNAc-anhMurNAc-AEOG, Structure A	849.845 g/mol	C₃₄H₅₅N₇O₁₈	Muropeptide from Borrelia burgdorderi. Two isobaric structures are known. Differences are in stem peptide, presumably related to the bonding pattern for glutamate.	DOI:10.1038/s41564-021-01003-w	Peptidoglycan
GLYC000005	L-Fucose	164.1565 g/mol	C₆H₁₂O₅	L-Fucose (6-deoxy-L-galactopyranose) is a deoxy hexose monosaccharide. It is found on N-linked glycans on the mammalian, insect and plant cell surface. Fucose is also the fundamental sub-unit of the seaweed polysaccharide fucoidan.	N/A	Monosaccharide
GLYC000006	β-D-Glucosamine pentaacetate	389.36 g/mol	C₁₆H₂₃NO₁₀	β-D-Glucosamine pentaacetate (2-Acetamido-2-deoxy-β-D-glucopyranose 1,3,4,6-tetraacetate) is a synthetic monosaccharide produced from an acetylation reaction of either glucosamine or N-acetylglucosamine.	N/A	Monosaccharide
