 Use of Isoglobotriaose


Isoglobotriaose (Gala-3Galb-4Glc) is a glycosphingolipid found in mammalian tissues. Isoglobotriaose is an analogue of Globotriaose, the ganglioside derivatives of them locate in difference position of small intestine, isoglobotriaosylceramide is restricted to the nonepithelial residue, while globotriaosylceramide is in both compartments[1][2].

In Vitro Isoglobotriaose is synthesized from lactose, glucose-1-phophate (Glc-1-P), and uridine 5’-triphosphate (UTP) by a one-pot three-enzyme system containing UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (GlaU), UDP-Gal 4-epimerase (GalE), and an α1-3galactosytransferase (α1-3GalT)[1].
