1'-4 Thio-N-acetyllactosamine was chemically synthesized as a galactosidase-stable substrate for alpha(1-->3)fucosyltransferase. The product of enzymatic fucose addition was confirmed to be the thio-Le X analog.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D005647 Fucosyltransferases Enzymes catalyzing the transfer of fucose from a nucleoside diphosphate fucose to an acceptor molecule which is frequently another carbohydrate, a glycoprotein, or a glycolipid molecule. Elevated activity of some fucosyltransferases in human serum may serve as an indicator of malignancy. The class includes EC 2.4.1.65; EC 2.4.1.68; EC 2.4.1.69; EC 2.4.1.89. Fucosyltransferase
D005696 Galactosidases A family of galactoside hydrolases that hydrolyze compounds with an O-galactosyl linkage. EC 3.2.1.-. Galactosidase
