General description

Uridine 5′-diphospho-α-D-galactose/UDP-Gal is a nucleotide sugar.[1]

Application

Uridine 5′-diphosphogalactose disodium salt has been used as a component in galactosyltransferase labeling buffer to prelabel terminal N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) on immunoglobulin chains.[2] It has also been used as a component in Hyp O-galactosyltransferase (HPGT) assay.[3]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Uridine 5′-diphospho-α-D-galactose/UDP-Gal can block BALB/3T12 cell development.[4] In mammals, it is very essential for glycoconjugate biosynthesis.[1]

The human UDP glycosyltransferase (UGT) superfamily comprises four families of enzymes that catalyze the addition of sugar residues to small lipophilic chemicals. The UGT1 and UGT2 enzymes use UDP-glucuronic acid, and UGT3 enzymes use UDP-N-acetylglucosamine, UDP-glucose, and UDP-xylose to conjugate
