Application

Different concentrations of methyl α-D-glucopyranoside were used to vary echo decay times in a study that assessed the effects of cryoprotection on the structure and activity of p21ras. Methyl α-D-glucopyranoside has also been used in a study to investigate saccharide-mediated protection of chaotropic-induced deactivation of concanavalin A.
