Phenyl 2,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-3-O-allyl-β-D-thiogalactopyranoside

Phenyl 2,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-3-O-allyl-β-D-thiogalactopyranoside (Gal[246Ac,3All]-β-SPh) is a biochemical reagent employed in glycobiology research. Glycobiology focuses on the study of sugar structures, synthesis, biology, and evolution. It encompasses carbohydrate chemistry, glycan synthesis and degradation enzymology, protein-glycan interactions, and the role of glycans in biological systems, closely linking basic research, biomedicine, and biotechnology.
