Application

α-D-Glucose (96%) serves a crucial role in metabolic processes as it is a primary substrate in glycosyltransferase reactions. This involves the transformation of glucose into various glycosides through the attachment of sugar moieties, essential for numerous biological functions. Additionally, it is closely related to UDP-α-D-Glucose, a compound known to interact with specific receptors such as the P2Y14 receptor, which plays a role in activating immune and nervous system cells. Furthermore, similar compounds like UDP-α-D-Glucose can engage and activate the GPR17 receptor, demonstrating potential to aid in the differentiation of oligodendrocytes, cells vital for the functioning of the nervous system.
