Description

Glucosylgalactosylhydroxylysine (GGLH) is a complex sugar molecule found in collagen, a structural protein that provides support and strength to tissues throughout the body. It is formed by the sequential addition of glucose and galactose sugars to hydroxylysine, an amino acid modified by the addition of a hydroxyl group.
GGLH is important for the proper assembly and function of collagen. Its presence in collagen contributes to the stability and integrity of the collagen fibrils, the building blocks of connective tissues.
GGLH has been studied for its potential role in various biological processes, including:
- **Collagen biosynthesis and assembly:** GGLH is a crucial component of collagen, and its synthesis and modification are essential for the formation of functional collagen fibers.
- **Cellular signaling:** GGLH is thought to be involved in signaling pathways that regulate cellular processes related to collagen metabolism and tissue repair.
- **Disease pathogenesis:** Abnormalities in GGLH synthesis or degradation have been linked to various diseases, including connective tissue disorders, such as Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, and bone diseases, such as osteoporosis.
Researchers study GGLH to better understand its role in collagen structure and function, its involvement in cellular signaling, and its potential contribution to various diseases. By studying GGLH, researchers hope to develop new diagnostic tools and therapeutic strategies for conditions related to collagen metabolism.'

AnemonegenusA plant genus of the family RANUNCULACEAE that contains triterpene saponins. The root of Anemone raddeana is the source of a Chinese folk medicine, zhu jie xian fu. The common name of liverwort is also used with other plants. This genus is unrelated to SEA ANEMONES.[MeSH]RanunculaceaeThe buttercup plant family of the order RANUNCULALES, class MAGNOLIOPSIDA. The leaves are usually alternate and stalkless. The flowers usually have two to five free sepals and may be radially symmetrical or irregular.[MeSH]
