Glycoscience

Glycyl-2'-fucosyllactose is a monosaccharide that is modified by glycosylation, methylation, and click modification. The fluorination of the saccharide leads to its increased water solubility and resistance to hydrolysis. Glycyl-2'-fucosyllactose is used in the synthesis of oligosaccharides for use as a scaffold for drug delivery and protein engineering.

Chiral D-Glucuronic acid is the most basic building bloc of hyaluronic acid and chondroitin sulfate and precursor of Vitamin C, the chief detoxifying agent in both plants and animals. Humectant in skin care products.

Gangliotetraose (Galβ1,3GalNAcβ1,4Galβ1,4Glc) is the core tetrasaccharide found in many gangliosides, such as, GM1 (Ledeen, 2009). Gangliosides containing gangliotetraose are abundant in mammalian brains, where they can cover 10%–20% of the total ganglioside mixture. They are found in epithelial membranes and are key elements for bacterial toxicity and viral infection, for example, it is the intestinal receptor for cholera toxin, the B-subunits of heat-labile toxin, rotavirus, and simian virus 40. They can function as neurotrophic and neuroprotective compounds, and have been used therapeutically for diabetic and peripheral neuropathies. They bind amyloid-β proteins and are involved in Alzheimer’s pathogenesis (Chiricozzi, 2020).

4-Methoxyphenyl 4-O-(4-O-acetyl-3,6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-2-phthalimido-b-D-glucopyranosyl)-3,6,2′,4′″triphosphate (4MPP) is a methylated saccharide. It can be modified with click chemistry and has been shown to inhibit the synthesis of glycogen in the liver. 4MPP is a high purity product that has been synthesized from naturally occurring carbohydrates. It is also fluorinated for use in research.

Sophoricoside is a natural compound present in the fructus of Sophora flavescens and is used as an anti-diabetic medicine. It has been shown to have genotoxic effects, which may be due to its ability to induce reactive oxygen species (ROS) and DNA damage. Sophoricoside also has a matrix effect on radiation. This effect has been shown in rat cardiac cells and human serum. Sophoricoside also exhibits hepatoprotective properties by reducing hepatic steatosis, which may be due to its ability to inhibit lipogenesis and stimulate fat oxidation. In addition, sophoricoside has been shown to have anti-inflammatory activities.

Glycol ethers are compounds that are used as solvents and plasticizers. They have been shown to inhibit the activity of enzymes, such as glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, which is involved in the conversion of glucose to phosphate. Glycol ethers also promote sugar transport by inhibiting the sodium-dependent glucose transporter (SGLT). This transport mechanism is important for maintaining normal blood sugar levels and preventing diabetic neuropathy. Glycol ethers are also anti-diabetic agents that can increase insulin sensitivity by stimulating insulin release from pancreatic beta cells and improving the response of peripheral tissues to insulin stimulation.

Methyl cellulose is a water-soluble polymer that is used as a binder or thickener in pharmaceutical, food, and ceramic processing applications. Methylcellulose has an unusual lower critical solution temperature (LCST) between 40 °C and 50 °C. At temperatures below the LCST it is readily soluble in water; above the LCST it is not soluble, which has a paradoxical effect that heating a saturated solution of methylcellulose will turn it solid, because methylcellulose will precipitate out. The temperature at which this occurs depends on DS-value, with higher DS-values giving lower solubility and lower precipitation temperatures because the polar hydroxyl groups are masked.

3,4,6-Tri-O-acetyl-2-deoxy-2-phthalimido-b-D-glucopyranosyl fluoride is a synthetic glycoside that has been synthesized by the click modification of a fluorinated saccharide. The compound has an acetyl group at C3 and C6 positions with an OCH3 group at the C4 position. This compound has been used in glycosylation reactions to modify the carbohydrate moiety of peptides and proteins. It has also been used in research on complex carbohydrate chemistry.

Glucosylceramide (Glc-Cer) is the common precursor in the biosynthesis of most glycosphingolipids, with exception of some Gal-Cer derivatives, such as, GM4. Glucosylceramide consists of a glucosyl moiety which is β-O-glycosydically linked to ceramide, which itself, consists of the long-chain aminoalcohol sphingosine and a fatty acid. Glucosylceramide (also called glucocerebroside) is synthesised enzymatically, by the glucosylceramide synthase-catalysed with the addition of a glucose residue to ceramide. Glucosylceramide is involved in the regulation of various cellular events and also serves as a main constituent in liposome formulations.

L-Altrose is a carbohydrate that is used as a nutrient and sweetener. It is a dextrose monomer with an L-arabinose side chain. L-Altrose has been shown to be a stereoselective carbon source that can be used in the synthesis of various biologically active compounds, such as antibiotics. L-Altrose has also been shown to stimulate growth of yeast cells in the absence of oxygen by providing an extracellular carbon source. This compound can be hydrolyzed by ring-opening or benzoylation reactions to yield dextrose.

2-Iodoethyl 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-a-D-mannopyranoside is a high purity custom synthesis that can be modified with Click chemistry. It can be synthesized by modification of methylated glycosides and saccharides. This product has been shown to have a wide range of applications in the areas of fluorination, glycosylation, and methylation. The sugar moiety is an oligosaccharide made up of one or more monosaccharides (simple sugars) joined together by glycosidic bonds. This product is often found in complex carbohydrates such as glycogen and starch.

3,5-Dimethyl-D-fructose is a glycosylation product of 3,5-dimethoxy-4-hydroxybenzoic acid and D-glucose. It can be synthesized by the reaction of 3,5-dimethoxy-4-hydroxybenzoic acid with D-glucose in the presence of sodium cyanoborohydride. This product has been used as a reactant in click chemistry and as a fluorinating agent for saccharides. 3,5-Dimethyl-D-fructose is a custom synthesis that can be ordered in high purity at CAS No. 52674-57-6.br>br>
3,5 - Dimethyl - D - fructose
is an oligosaccharide that is used as an intermediate in the synthesis of other sugars. This product has been shown to have antiinflammatory properties due to its inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis.br

1,5-Anhydro-D-mannitol is a monosaccharide that is used as an active ingredient in many pharmaceuticals. It is synthesized by the reaction of benzyl chloride with galactose.
