Description

Aneu5Ac2,6-B-D-Galactopyranosyl-1,1’-n-Hexacosanoyl-2’-Hexacosamide-4’-Octadecene-1’,3’-Diol (Synonym: Neu5Aca2,6-β-Galcer) is a complex, high-purity synthetic glycolipid, specifically a ganglioside analog. This compound is of significant value in advanced biomedical research and development due to its role in studying cell membrane structure, signal transduction, and carbohydrate-protein interactions. It is primarily needed by research institutions and pharmaceutical companies focused on neuroscience, immunology, and oncology, where it serves as a critical tool for investigating receptor-ligand binding and developing targeted therapies.

Application

• Biomedical Research: As a key reagent for studying ganglioside-mediated cell signaling pathways, neuronal development, and cellular recognition processes.
• Drug Discovery & Development: Utilized in high-throughput screening assays to identify novel therapeutic agents targeting specific carbohydrate-binding proteins or receptors.
• Immunology Studies: Employed in research on immune cell modulation, antigen presentation, and the role of glycolipids in autoimmune diseases.
• Membrane Biophysics: Used to create model membrane systems (e.g., liposomes, supported lipid bilayers) to investigate lipid raft dynamics and membrane protein function.
• Diagnostic Tool Development: Serves as a coating antigen or a standard in the development of immunoassays and biosensors for detecting specific antibodies or pathogens.
• Glycobiology Research: A critical substrate for studying the activity of glycosyltransferases, sialidases, and other enzymes involved in glycolipid metabolism.
