N-Acetyl-D-Glucosamine
N-Acetyl-D-Glucosamine (NAG) is a glucose-derived monosaccharide released from O-GlcNAc-modified proteins via O-GlcNAcase. It serves as a key research tool for studying O-GlcNAcylation dynamics in cellular signaling, metabolic regulation, and disease models, applicable in both in vitro enzymatic assays and in vivo research.
