L-Fucose
IUPAC 名称
(3S,4R,5S,6S)-6-methyloxane-2,3,4,5-tetrol
描述
A constituent of the polysaccharides obtained from gum tragacanthand is) also found in glycoproteins obtained from milk
Fucose is a hexose deoxy sugar with the chemical formula C6H12O5. It is found on N-linked glycans on the mammalian, insect and plant cell surface, and is the fundamental sub-unit of the fucoidan polysaccharide. Alpha1?3 linked core fucose is a suspected carbohydrate antigen for IgE-mediated allergy.; Fucose is a hexose sugar with the chemical formula C6H12O5. It is found on N-linked glycans on the mammalian and plant cell surface. Fucose is secreted in urine when the liver is damaged. Alpha1->3 linked core fucose is a suspected carbohydrate antigen for IgE-mediated allergy. Two structural features distinguish fucose from other six-carbon sugars present in mammals: the lack of a hydroxyl group on the carbon at the 6-position (C-6) and the L-configuration. In fucose-containing glycan structures, fucosylated glycans, fucose can exist as a terminal modification or serve as an attachment point for adding other sugars.
