Ac5GalNTGc Epimer (Cat No.: I040015) is a synthetic analog of N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) designed for glycoscience and metabolic labeling research. It serves as a metabolic precursor that integrates into glycan biosynthesis, enabling studies on glycoprotein modification and cellular glycosylation pathways. This epimer is particularly useful in probing sialic acid metabolism and understanding glycan-related disease mechanisms, including cancer and immune disorders. Its structural modification enhances specificity in biochemical assays, making it a valuable tool in glycomics, biomarker discovery, and therapeutic glycoengineering research.
