Description

α-D-Galactose 1-phosphate Dipotassium Salt Penthahydrate, White Powder

• α-D-Galactose 1-phosphate may be used in Leloir pathway of galactose metabolism research to study the process of UDP-Galactose (UDP-Gal) formation via UDP-glucose:α-D-galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase(s) (EC 2.7.7.12).
• It may be used to identify and characterize and study the functions of galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase(s).
• D-Galactose 1-phosphate is an important building block for the synthesis of nucleotide sugars that are substrates for glycosyltransferases.
