UDP-GlcNAz

UDP-GlcNAz disodium (UDP-N-azidoacetylgalactosamine disodium) is the analogue of UDP-GlcNAc (HY-112174) . UDP-GlcNAc is the donor substrate of many N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferases, enzymes which transfer GlcNAc from the nucleotide sugar to a saccharide or peptide acceptor. UDP-GlcNAc (disodium) is a click chemistry reagent, it contains an Azide group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction (CuAAc) with molecules containing Alkyne groups. It can also undergo strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition (SPAAC) reactions with molecules containing DBCO or BCN groups[1].
