N-Azidoacetylgalactosamine, 5 mg

N-Azidoacetylgalactosamine is an azido-functionalised galactosamine derivative supplied as a biochemical research reagent with the empirical formula C₈H₁₄N₄O₆ and a molar mass of 262,22 g/mol. The compound is well suited for studies of glycosylation pathways, glycoprotein tagging and bioorthogonal ligation strategies that rely on copper-catalysed or strain-promoted azide–alkyne cycloaddition. Offered by manufacturer Carl ROTH within its biochemicals range, the material provides a defined sugar scaffold for method development, probe synthesis and exploratory cell-biology experiments. Its small unit quantity is practical for screening, assay optimisation and limited-scale synthetic steps without excess inventory. Researchers working in chemical biology, glycomics and bioconjugation can integrate this reagent into labelling cascades, affinity-capture schemes or imaging protocols that demand a discrete N-azidoacetyl galactosamine building block.
