Derived N-glycosylation traits. A) N-glycans can be divided into four types, representing their maturation throughout the biosynthetic pathway. B) Per N-glycosylation type, different traits can be calculated as shown here for complex type N-glycans (including their common abbreviations). The calculation of derived glycosylation traits allows the representation of basic glycan biosynthesis steps and enhances data precision.
