Lactose-3'-sulfate

Description

Lactose-3-sulfate 4-O- 3-O-Sulfo-?-D-galactopyranosyl -D-glucose is a class of biochemical reagents used in glycobiology research. Glycobiology studies the structure, synthesis, biology, and evolution of sugars. It involves carbohydrate chemistry, enzymology of glycan formation and degradation, protein-glycan recognition, and the role of glycans in biological systems. This field is closely related to basic research, biomedicine, and biotechnology.
