Product Description: 2-Deoxy-D-Glucose (2-DG, CAS No.: 154-17-6)

2-Deoxy-D-Glucose, a glucose analog with the molecular formula  C6H12O5
 and molecular weight 164.16 g/mol, is a potent glycolysis inhibitor and multifunctional bioactive compound. By mimicking glucose, it is taken up by cells and phosphorylated to 2-deoxy-D-glucose-6-phosphate, which accumulates and inhibits key glycolytic enzymes, thereby blocking energy metabolism. This mechanism underpins its applications in oncology (as a potential anticancer agent targeting the Warburg effect), virology (for inhibiting viral replication, e.g., COVID-19, HSV), and as a critical research tool for studying cellular metabolism and glycolytic pathways.
