Informação sobre produto

• Nome: 6-Deoxy-6-fluoro-D-glucose
• Marca: Biosynth
• Descrição: 6-Deoxy-6-fluoro-D-glucose is a molecule that belongs to the group of glucose analogs. It has been shown that 6-deoxy-6-fluoro-D-glucose, or dF6G, induces apoptosis in MCF7 cells through inhibition of glut1, the rate limiting enzyme for glycolysis. The structural analysis of the compound showed that it contains a fluorine atom at C2 and an oxygen atom at C3. The kinetic studies revealed that dF6G reacts with H2O in a 1:1 stoichiometric ratio to form hydrogen fluoride and 6-deoxyhexoate. 6dF6G has been shown to have pharmacokinetic properties similar to glucose and it can be used as an alternative source of energy by many organisms including aerobacter aerogenes.
