Description

Galactosyltransferase From Human Milk is a highly specific enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of galactose from UDP-galactose to acceptor molecules, playing a crucial role in the biosynthesis of glycoconjugates. This enzyme is essential for research and development in glycobiology, enabling the study and synthesis of complex oligosaccharides and glycoproteins. It is a critical reagent for biotechnology, pharmaceutical, and diagnostic companies focused on advancing research in lactation biology, infant nutrition, and therapeutic glycoengineering.

Application

• Glycobiology Research: A fundamental tool for studying the biosynthesis, structure, and function of human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) and other glycans.
• Enzymatic Synthesis: Used in the in vitro production of specific oligosaccharides and glycoconjugates for research and potential therapeutic applications.
• Diagnostic Development: Serves as a key component in assays designed to detect or quantify specific glycosyltransferase activity or glycan structures.
• Biopharmaceutical R&D: Employed in the development and quality control of glycosylated biotherapeutics to ensure proper post-translational modifications.
• Nutritional Science: Used in studies investigating the functional role of HMOs in infant gut health, immunity, and development.
• Enzyme Characterization: Acts as a standard or subject for kinetic studies, inhibitor screening, and mechanistic investigations in enzymology.
