Gal-alpha1,3-GalNAc

2-Acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(a-D-galactopyranosyl)-D-galactopyranose is an amino disaccharide metabolite used in carbohydrate chemistry. It is a deoxy sugar derivate, rendered from a deoxyribose molecule. This sugar qualifies as a member of the acetamide group due to the organic compound, acetamide, contained within it. It is also a glycosyl compound, a sugar group which has a glycosidic binding to another group through its anomeric carbon. 2-Acetamido-2-deoxy-3-O-(a-D-galactopyranosyl)-D-galactopyranose can be used as a chiral reagent.
