available_monosaccharides: Get Available Monosaacharides

In glyrepr: Representation for Glycan Compositions and Structures

Get Available Monosaacharides

Description

This function returns a character vector of monosaccharide names of the given type. See get_mono_type() for monosaacharide types. Concrete furanose forms use an f after the monosaccharide stem, such as Galf and GlcfNAc. Generic names do not encode ring form. Less common absolute configurations use a leading ⁠D-⁠ or ⁠L-⁠, such as D-Fuc, L-Gul, and D-Fucf. Unprefixed names retain their natural configurations.

Usage

available_monosaccharides(mono_type = "all")

Arguments

mono_type

A character string specifying the type of monosaccharides. Can be "all", "generic", or "concrete". Default is "all".

Value

A character vector of monosaccharide names.

Examples

available_monosaccharides()
available_monosaccharides("concrete")
