2-Amino-2-deoxy-L-fucose is a fatty acid that is structurally similar to galacturonic acid. It has been shown to have antimicrobial activity against some bacteria and fungi, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus. 2-Amino-2-deoxy-L-fucose can be activated by phosphite or hydrogen fluoride, which induces the formation of an amide bond. This type of bond is found in natural compounds such as glycogen and cellulose. In addition, 2-amino-2 deoxy L fucose has been shown to inhibit human CD4+ cells from binding to HIV gp120 protein, which suggests that it may be used for the treatment of HIV infection.

NA3F is a N-glycan that is found on various glycoproteins and glycolipids. It consists of sialic acid, galactose, and fucose sugars in the ratio 3:2:1. NA3F N-glycans are synthesized by the removal of the terminal sialic acid residue from an Asn-linked oligosaccharide precursor. These types of glycans are found on high mannose (HMan) and hybrid (HHyb) glycans. The synthesis of NA3F N-glycan requires the activity of two enzymes: peptidase and sialyltransferase. The enzyme peptidase cleaves an α(1,4)-linked oligosaccharide at the nonreducing end to form a free α(1,6) linked oligosaccharide with a terminal α(1,2) linked mannose residue. This process releases the terminal

2-Acetamido-2-deoxy-b-D-glucopyranosylnitromethane is a natural product that can be found in the extract of gladiolus. It has been shown to have antimalarial activity against Plasmodium falciparum and other species. 2-Acetamido-2-deoxy-b-D-glucopyranosylnitromethane inhibits the growth of bacteria by binding to the 50S ribosomal subunit, preventing transcription and replication. The high frequency of human activity has been shown using a patch clamp technique on human erythrocytes. This active form is metabolized through a number of metabolic transformations, including hydrolysis by esterases or glucuronidases, oxidation by cytochrome P450 enzymes, reduction by glutathione reductase, or conjugation with glucuronic acid.

Ribitol is a sugar alcohol that is found in all living organisms. It is also used as a source of carbon and energy in the form of D-ribitol-5-phosphate, which can be synthesized from ribose 5-phosphate by means of an enzymatic reaction. Ribitol 5 phosphate is used for the synthesis of monoclonal antibodies, which are useful for studying enzyme activities, immunoassays, and cell surface receptors. This compound has been shown to have regulatory effects on the expression of genes encoding fatty acid biosynthesis enzymes. Ribitol 5 phosphate has been detected using magnetic resonance spectroscopy techniques in glycan structures and galacturonic acid residues.

a-D-Galactosyl-mannotriose is a complex oligosaccharide, which is derived from plant materials such as leguminous seeds. Its mode of action involves selectively promoting the growth of beneficial gut bacteria, particularly bifidobacteria and lactobacilli, through its structural composition that resists hydrolysis by human digestive enzymes. This non-digestibility allows it to reach the colon intact, where it can exert its prebiotic effects.

Salacinol is a naturally occurring sulfonium ion, which is a bioactive compound found primarily in the roots and stems of the plant Salacia reticulata. This plant is native to regions of South Asia, particularly India and Sri Lanka, and is traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine. Salacinol's mode of action involves the inhibition of alpha-glucosidase, an enzyme responsible for breaking down carbohydrates into glucose. By inhibiting this enzyme, salacinol reduces the postprandial rise in blood glucose levels, thus demonstrating antidiabetic potential.

Fructose-3-phosphate sodium salt is a reactive sugar molecule that belongs to the group of monosaccharides. It can be used as a cross-linking agent in polymerization reactions, such as those used in sample preparation for animal experiments or for magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Fructose-3-phosphate sodium salt is also used as a reactant in nephrology dialysis and has been shown to have beneficial effects on diabetic patients. This compound has the ability to increase the concentration of galactitol, a nonmetabolized form of glucose that can only be obtained from the diet. Galactitol is produced by the liver when blood glucose levels are high and helps to lower blood glucose levels through its action on insulin secretion and peripheral tissue sensitivity. Fructose-3-phosphate sodium salt may also act as an anti-inflammatory agent by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis, which may be due to its inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis

2-Acetamido-2-deoxy-alpha- D-galactopyranosyl L-threonine is a synthetic sugar. It has a CAS number of 67315-18-8 and a molecular weight of 289.05 g/mol. This sugar is synthesized by the Click modification, fluorination, glycosylation, and methylation methods. The synthesis can be modified to produce 2-acetamido-2,3,4,5,-tetra deoxygalactose or 2 acetamido 4,6 deoxy galactose. This sugar also has saccharide properties as it is classified as an oligosaccharide or monosaccharide.
