Fucα(1-6)GlcNAc-β-propylbiotinamide is primarily utilized in glycobiology research to study fucosylation processes and carbohydrate-protein interactions. Its biotin tag allows for easy detection and purification in assays, making it valuable for investigating fucose-containing glycans in cellular and molecular studies. It is also employed in the development of diagnostic tools to identify specific glycosylation patterns associated with diseases like cancer. Additionally, this compound serves as a probe in lectin-binding studies to understand the role of fucose in biological recognition and signaling pathways.
