D-N-Acetylgalactosamine-13C（Cat No.:R040973）is a stable isotope-labeled derivative of N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc), an amino sugar that plays a key role in glycosylation processes. The “13C” label refers to the incorporation of the carbon-13 isotope, which is used in metabolic studies and to trace the incorporation of GalNAc in various biochemical pathways. D-N-Acetylgalactosamine-13C is useful for investigating glycosylation patterns in glycoproteins, glycosaminoglycans, and glycolipids. It also aids in studying carbohydrate metabolism, cell signaling, and enzyme activity, particularly in relation to diseases involving glycosylation defects or imbalances.
