Uridine Diphosphate Galactose

More information in Books or onNLM PubMed
Definition: A nucleoside diphosphate sugar which can be epimerized into UDPglucose for entry into the mainstream of carbohydrate metabolism. Serves as a source of galactose in the synthesis of lipopolysaccharides, cerebrosides, and lactose.      Other names Uridine Pyrophosphogalactose; Uridine Diphosphogalactose; UDPGal; UDP Galactose; Pyrophosphogalactose, Uridine; Galactose, Uridine Diphosphate; Galactose, UDP; Diphosphogalactose, Uridine; Diphosphate Galactose, Uridine
