D-N-Acetylgalactosamine
N-Acetyl-D-galactosamine (GalNAc) is a key monosaccharide component of glycoproteins and proteoglycans, particularly in brain tissue. It is widely used in glycosylation research, serving as a critical substrate or inhibitor in studies of glycosyltransferase activity and carbohydrate metabolism both in vitro and in cell-based assays.
