尽管多项国际举措取得了成功，糖科学仍然缺乏可管理的基础设施，无法通过提供全面的结构和实验聚糖数据收集来促进研究的进步。 UniCarbKB 是一项旨在促进创建糖组学和糖生物学研究在线信息存储和搜索平台的倡议。该知识库将提供可免费访问且信息丰富的资源，并通过查询接口、注释技术以及采用通用标准来集成结构、实验和功能数据提供支持。 UniCarbKB 框架致力于通过提供开放且统一的门户鼓励数据共享来支持糖生物信息学的发展和知识的传播。为了实现这一目标，该框架致力于开发支持数据注释的工具和程序，并通过现有数据库的交叉引用来扩展互操作性。数据库网址：http://www.unicarbkb.org。
Despite the success of several international initiatives the glycosciences still lack a managed infrastructure that contributes to the advancement of research through the provision of comprehensive structural and experimental glycan data collections. UniCarbKB is an initiative that aims to promote the creation of an online information storage and search platform for glycomics and glycobiology research. The knowledgebase will offer a freely accessible and information-rich resource supported by querying interfaces, annotation technologies and the adoption of common standards to integrate structural, experimental and functional data. The UniCarbKB framework endeavors to support the growth of glycobioinformatics and the dissemination of knowledge through the provision of an open and unified portal to encourage the sharing of data. In order to achieve this, the framework is committed to the development of tools and procedures that support data annotation, and expanding interoperability through cross-referencing of existing databases.
