Specification
The molecular formula of 2-Deoxy-2-fluoro-L-fucose is C6H11FO4.
The molecular weight of 2-Deoxy-2-fluoro-L-fucose is 166.15 g/mol.
Some synonyms for 2-Deoxy-2-fluoro-L-fucose include 2-fluorofucose and L-Galactose, 2,6-dideoxy-2-fluoro.
2-Deoxy-2-fluoro-L-fucose is under investigation as a protein fucosylation inhibitor with potential antineoplastic and immunomodulating activities.
2-Deoxy-2-fluoro-L-fucose is converted to guanosine diphosphate (GDP)-2FF, which prevents the formation of the fucosylation substrate GDP-fucose.
Fucosylation of glycoproteins plays a key role in many biological processes, such as protein function, receptor binding, cell signaling, and cellular adhesion.
Blocking fucosylation decreases tumor cell growth by preventing the incorporation of fucose into glycoproteins.
