Product Description:

Α-D-Glucose 1-phosphate disodium salt is a key biochemical reagent and metabolic intermediate. It is the sodium salt form of glucose 1-phosphate, a fundamental compound in carbohydrate metabolism. This white to off-white powder is highly soluble in water and is commonly used in biochemical research and enzymatic studies. Its primary application is in life science research, particularly in studies of glycogen metabolism, glycolysis, and enzymatic pathways involving glycosyltransferases. It serves as a substrate for enzymes such as phosphoglucomutase and UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase, making it essential for investigating sugar nucleotide biosynthesis and carbohydrate-related biochemical processes. It is also used in the preparation of other glycosyl donors and in the study of bacterial cell wall synthesis. While its main use is as a specialized biochemical reagent, its defined structure also makes it a valuable chiral building block for the synthesis of complex carbohydrates, glycoconjugates, and other biologically active molecules in synthetic chemistry. It should be stored in a cool, dry place and handled under standard laboratory safety protocols.
