Product Information

• Name: 2-Acetamido-N-(e-aminocaproyl)-2-deoxy-b-D-glucopyranosyl amine
• Synonyms: CNAG
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-Acetamido-N-(e-aminocaproyl)-2-deoxy-b-D-glucopyranosyl amine (Km) is a compound that has been shown to have hexosaminidase activity. It is a human liver enzyme that catalyzes the cleavage of the terminal alpha-1,4 linkage between N-acetylglucosamine and D-glucose residues from the nonreducing end of the beta 1,4 linked N-acetylglucosamine molecule. The KM value for this enzyme is 3.2 mM. This compound also has affinity chromatography properties, which allows it to be used in affinity chromatography experiments as a ligand for concanavalin A. 2KA can be used in gel electrophoresis to separate polypeptides by their size or charge. The corresponding KM value for this process is 22.5 mM. Denaturing conditions are required to
