Product Information
- a-L-Mannoheptose
L-Glycero-L-galacto-heptose is a cyclitol that is structurally similar to glycerol and galactose. It has been found in the Australian sea urchin Strongylocentrotus franciscanus. L-Glycero-L-galacto-heptose can be synthesized by reacting methyl glycosides with calcium ions. This reaction produces an electrophoretic mobility that is greater than that of glycerol, which may be due to the greater degree of hydrogen bonding between methyl glycosides and calcium ions. The presence of hydroxyl groups on the sugar residue allows for the formation of hydrogen bonds with neighboring molecules. These interactions lead to a conformation that is different from other cyclitols, such as D-glycero-D-galactopyranose, which has no hydroxyl group on its sugar residue.
