Application

N-Acetyl-D-lactosamine is used as a specific lectin target molecule in the identification and differentiation of sugar binding molecules such as the galectins. N-Acetyl-D-lactosamine is used in studies of galactosidase, fucosyltransferase, sialyltransferase, and lectin inhibition.
Useful in studies of galactosidase, fucosyltransferase, sialyltransferase, and lectin inhibition.
