Description

2-Deoxy-D-[2-13C]Erythro-Pentose is a stable isotope-labeled derivative of 2-deoxy-D-ribose, where the carbon-2 position is enriched with the 13C isotope. This precise labeling makes it an essential tool for advanced metabolic and biochemical research, providing critical insights into nucleotide and carbohydrate metabolic pathways. It is primarily used by researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and diagnostic sectors for tracer studies, NMR spectroscopy, and the development of labeled pharmaceuticals.

Application

• Metabolic Tracer Studies: Used to trace and quantify the metabolic flux in pentose phosphate and nucleotide synthesis pathways.
• NMR Spectroscopy: Serves as a crucial internal standard or probe in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis for structural elucidation.
• Isotope-Labeled Pharmaceutical Synthesis: A key building block in the research and development of 13C-labeled drug candidates and biomarkers.
• Biochemical Research: Employed in enzymatic studies to investigate the mechanisms of glycosyltransferases and other carbohydrate-processing enzymes.
• Diagnostic Agent Development: Used in the formulation of advanced contrast agents or probes for molecular imaging techniques like MRI.
• Stable Isotope Labeling in Cell Culture (SILAC): Can be utilized in proteomics and metabolomics for accurate mass spectrometry-based quantification.
