Product Description
UDP-Galactose is a monosaccharide involved in nucleotide sugar metabolism. UDP-Galactose and its analogues are natural agonists of the Gi protein-coupled P2Y14 receptor in the immune system (IC50=0.67 μM, hP2Y14).
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Human Endogenous Metabolite P2Y14 Receptor 0.67 μM (EC50)
ln Vitro
UDP-galactose 2, UDP-glucuronic acid 3, and UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 4a also were agonists with potencies similar to that of UDP-glucose 1 at the P2Y14 receptor. The maximal effect observed with 2, 3, and 4a was somewhat variable. Maximal effects identical to that of UDP-glucose were observed in some experiments, whereas the maximal effects observed with these three molecules were somewhat less than that of UDP-glucose in other experiments. 2-Thio-UDP-glucuronic acid 28 acted as an agonist at the P2Y14 receptor and was equipotent to compounds 1 and 3. Thus, the favorable 2-thio modification preserved but did not enhance the potency of a hexose sugar-modified analogue. UDP-glucose (UDPG) and derivatives are naturally occurring agonists of the Gi protein-coupled P2Y14 receptor, which occurs in the immune system. We synthesized and characterized pharmacologically novel analogues of UDPG modified on the nucleobase, ribose, and glucose moieties, as the basis for designing novel ligands in conjunction with modeling. The recombinant human P2Y14 receptor expressed in COS-7 cells was coupled to phospholipase C through an engineered Galpha-q/i protein. Most modifications of the uracil or ribose moieties abolished activity; this is among the least permissive P2Y receptors. However, a 2-thiouracil modification in 15 (EC50 49 +/- 2 nM) enhanced the potency of UDPG (but not UDP-glucuronic acid) by 7-fold. 4-Thio analogue 13 was equipotent to UDPG, but S-alkylation was detrimental. Compound 15 was docked in a rhodposin-based receptor homology model, which correctly predicted potent agonism of UDP-fructose, UDP-mannose, and UDP-inositol. The hexose moiety of UDPG interacts with multiple H-bonding and charged residues and provides a fertile region for agonist modification [1].
Enzyme Assay
Assay of P2Y14 receptor-stimulated PLC activity
COS-7 cells were transiently transfected with the human P2Y14 receptor and Gαqi5. Twenty-four hours after transfection, the inositol lipid pool of the cells was radiolabeled by incubation in 200 µL of serum-free inositol-free Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium, containing 0.4 µCi of myo-[3H]inositol. No changes of medium were made subsequent to the addition of [3H]inositol. Forty-eight hours after transfection, cells were challenged with 50 µL of the five-fold concentrated solution of receptor agonists in 200 mM N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-piperazine-N′-2-ethanesulfonic acid, pH 7.3, containing 50 mM LiCl for 20 min at 37 °C. Incubations were terminated by aspiration of the drug-containing medium and addition of 450 µL of ice-cold 50 mM formic acid. After 15 min at 4 °C, samples were neutralized with 150 µL of 150 mM NH4OH. [3H]Inositol phosphates were isolated by ion exchange chromatography on Dowex AG 1-X8 columns as previously described [1].

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:

  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
