Description
2-Deoxy-2-fluoro-L-fucose is an L-fucose analogue and a fucosylation inhibitor. 2-Deoxy-2-fluoro-L-fucose inhibits de novo synthesis of GDP-fucose in mammalian cells. Fucosylation is a relatively clear biomarker for the progression of many human cancers, such as pancreatic cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma
