Abstract
Computational techniques in prediction of protein-sugar (carbohydrate) interactions are required for the current biological studies. Although this field of bioinformatics is still immature as compared with that of protein-protein or protein-nucleic acid interactions, several methods have been developed as prompted by the increasing requirements.
