4-Methoxyphenyl 2-amino-3,6-di-O-benzyl-2-deoxy-β-D-glucopyranoside

4-Methoxyphenyl 2-Amino-3, 6-di-o-benzyl-2-deoxy-β-d-Glucopyranoside (4-MOP) is a class of biochemical reagents used for glycobiology research. Glycobiology studies the structure, synthesis, biology, and evolution of sugars. It deals with carbohydrate chemistry, glycan formation and degradation enzymology, protein-glycan recognition, and the role of glycans in biological systems. The field is closely related to basic research, biomedicine and biotechnology.
