epimer

Epimerization or stereoisomer conversion is another important process that may alter the results of analyses at stereoisomeric levels.

CarboMAX improves standard carbodiimide chemistry by providing faster activation, less epimerization, and increased stabilization of acid-sensitive linkages (ex.

However, we cannot discard the possibility that epimerization also occurs at the free inositol level, but with the subsequent rapid incorporation of DCIns into phospholipids, as observed both in vitro and in vivo [68, 69].

Bio synthesis of Sia begins with the epimerization and subsequent phosphorylation of UDP-GlcNAc (Uridine Di Phosphate-N-Acetylglucosamine) to ManNAc-6-P (N-acetylmannosamine-six-phosphate), in cytosol.

The loss of catecliin during pickling can be attributed to epimerization reactions that occur at higher drying temperatures (CHUAH et al., 2008).

Lactulose, a molecule not present in raw milk, is formed by epimerization of lactose due to heat treatment.

Epimerization at C-4, leading to glucose, and introducing a Cl-atom at C-4 also abolished binding.

Such transformations are known to occur in a wide variety of shellfish species and include a variety of mechanisms including epimerization, hydrolytic cleavage of A'-sulfo groups, reductive transformation, and enzymatic decarboxylation (Sakamoto et al.

The actual number is even higher because of additional biochemical processes such as epimerization and lactonization (11).
