A schematic Symbol Nomenclature for Glycans (SNFG) diagram depicts a complex, biantennary N-linked (N-glycan) attached to an asparagine (N) residue on a glycoprotein. Blue squares denote N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) forming the chitobiose core, green circles indicate mannose, yellow circles represent galactose, magenta diamonds mark sialic acid (N-acetylneuraminic acid, Neu5Ac), and a red triangle indicates core fucose. In glycomics and biochemistry, this carbohydrate structure illustrates post-translational protein glycosylation that modulates protein stability and cell–cell recognition on the extracellular surface of eukaryotic cells.
