Description

α-L-(-)-Fucose 1-Phosphate Di(Cylohexylammonium) Salt is a high-purity, chemically defined derivative of the deoxy sugar L-fucose, stabilized as a cyclohexylammonium salt for enhanced handling and solubility. This compound serves as a critical biochemical precursor and research standard for the synthesis of complex glycans, fucosylated oligosaccharides, and nucleotide sugars. It is essential for researchers and manufacturers in glycobiology, pharmaceutical development, and enzymology, particularly for studying fucosyltransferase activity and creating labeled probes.

Application

• Biochemical Research & Glycobiology: A key substrate and intermediate for studying fucosylation pathways, enzyme kinetics (e.g., fucosyltransferases), and glycan biosynthesis.
• Pharmaceutical Development: Used in the synthesis of novel glycoconjugates, potential drug candidates, and diagnostic agents targeting cell-surface carbohydrates.
• Enzyme Assay Standard: Serves as a high-purity reference standard for calibrating analytical methods (HPLC, MS) and validating enzyme activity assays.
• Synthesis of Nucleotide Sugars: Acts as a protected phosphate donor in the enzymatic or chemical synthesis of GDP-fucose and related nucleotide-activated sugars.
• Production of Labeled Compounds: A starting material for introducing radioactive (e.g., ³²P) or stable isotopic labels into complex carbohydrate structures for tracer studies.
• Microbiology & Immunology Research: Applied in studies of host-pathogen interactions where fucose-containing glycans play a role in recognition and adhesion.
