Web3 Unique Representation of Carbohydrate Structures

Other names: WURCS

The Web3 Unique Representation of Carbohydrate Structures (WURCS) defines a generalizable and unique linear representation for carbohydrate structures. A recent update (WURCS 2.0) was created to handle structural ambiguity around (potential) carbonyl groups incidental to the carbohydrate analysis. WURCS 2.0 can represent a wider variety of carbohydrate structures containing ambiguous monosaccharides, such as those whose ring closure is undefined or whose anomeric information is only known.
