| GLYC000001 | Methyl-α-D-glucopyranose | 194.18 g/mol | C7H14O6 |
|
Methyl-α-D-glucopyranose is a synthetic compound that is used in scientific research to study glucose transport mechanisms in cells. It is a glucose analog in which a methyl group (-CH3) replaces the hydroxyl group (-OH) at the alpha (α) carbon position | N/A | Monosaccharide |
| GLYC000002 | Methyl-β-D-glucopyranose | 194.18 g/mol | C7H14O6 |
|
Methyl-β-D-glucopyranoside is a synthetic glucose analog where a methyl group (-CH3) replaces the hydroxyl group (-OH) in the beta (β) anomeric configuration. | N/A | Monosaccharide |
| GLYC000003 | D-Glucose | 180.16 g/mol | C6H12O6 |
|
D-glucose, often simply referred to as glucose, is a simple sugar (monosaccharide) and one of the most important carbohydrates in biology. It is a fundamental source of energy for living organisms, including humans. The "D" in D-glucose stands for "dextrorotary," indicating the specific rotation of its optical isomer. | N/A | Monosaccharide |
| GLYC000005 | L-Fucose | 164.1565 g/mol | C6H12O5 |
|
L-Fucose (6-deoxy-L-galactopyranose) is a deoxy hexose monosaccharide. It is found on N-linked glycans on the mammalian, insect and plant cell surface. Fucose is also the fundamental sub-unit of the seaweed polysaccharide fucoidan. | N/A | Monosaccharide |
| GLYC000006 | β-D-Glucosamine pentaacetate | 389.36 g/mol | C16H23NO10 |
|
β-D-Glucosamine pentaacetate (2-Acetamido-2-deoxy-β-D-glucopyranose 1,3,4,6-tetraacetate) is a synthetic monosaccharide produced from an acetylation reaction of either glucosamine or N-acetylglucosamine. | N/A | Monosaccharide |
