Description

3-O-methylglucose is a glucose derivative with a methyl group attached to the 3-hydroxyl group. It is a non-metabolizable analog of glucose and is commonly used as a research tool in various biological studies. Synthesis: It can be synthesized using various chemical methods, often involving methylation of glucose. Effects: It is known to inhibit the activity of certain enzymes involved in glucose metabolism, such as hexokinase. Importance: It serves as a useful tool for studying glucose transport and metabolism. It can be used to assess glucose uptake and utilization by cells and tissues. It is also used to study the role of glucose in various cellular processes, such as insulin signaling and glycogen synthesis. Why it is studied: 3-O-methylglucose is studied to understand the role of glucose in biological systems, investigate the mechanisms of glucose transport, and develop novel therapeutic strategies for diseases related to glucose metabolism.'

Thyroxine is synthesized via the iodination of tyrosines (MONOIODOTYROSINE) and the coupling of iodotyrosines (DIIODOTYROSINE) in the THYROGLOBULIN. Thyroxine is released from thyroglobulin by proteolysis and secreted into the blood. Thyroxine is peripherally deiodinated to form TRIIODOTHYRONINE which exerts a broad spectrum of stimulatory effects on cell metabolism.. thyroxine : An iodothyronine compound having iodo substituents at the 3-, 3'-, 5- and 5'-positions.		1.97102-halophenol;
