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.

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

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.

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.

α-D-Galactose-1-phosphate is a model organism for the study of galactose metabolism. It is an intermediate in the galactose pathway and provides a new approach to understanding the pathogenesis of metabolic disorders. α-D-Galactose-1-phosphate is involved in many enzymatic reactions, including the conversion of uridine diphosphoglucose (UDPG) to UDP glucose, which is a key step in glycolysis. The enzyme that catalyzes this reaction, UDP glucuronosyltransferase (UGT), has been shown to be defective in patients with galactosemia. α-D-Galactose 1 phosphate has also been used as a model for studying human gene expression, specifically protein genes. This molecule has been found to bind DNA polymerase II and inhibit transcriptional elongation at specific sites on DNA called RNA polymerase II pause sites.
