Product Description: GDP-L-fucose disodium is a nucleotide sugar that is a key substrate for the biosynthesis of fucose oligosaccharides. GDP-L-fucose disodium provides the fucose moiety for the oligosaccharides. The formation of GDP-L-fucose disodium occurs through two pathways, the major de novo metabolic pathway and the minor remedial metabolic pathway[1].
Applications: Metabolism-sugar/lipid metabolism
Formula: C16H23N5Na2O15P2
