Application

N-(4-Aminobenzoyl)-L-glutamic acid (ABG) is used as a strong UV absorbing tag for the derivitization of oligosaccharides to enhance their detection in analytical methods such as capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE).

Biochem/physiol Actions

N-p-Aminobenzoyl)-L-glutamic acid is a folate catabolite that can be metabolized by bacterial p-aminobenzoate auxotrophs possessing the enzyme p-aminobenzoyl-glutamate hydrolase.

A charged and strongly UV-absorbing tag, N-(4-aminobenzoyl)-L-glutamic acid) (ABG), was coupled to oligosaccharides by reductive amination under mild conditions. The effectiveness of ABG as a derivatization agent is shown through the separation of isomaltooligosaccharides from a dextran hydrolysate. The minimum

Folates in vivo undergo oxidative cleavage, giving pterin and p-aminobenzoylglutamate (pABAGlu) moieties. These breakdown products are excreted in animals, but their fate is unclear in microorganisms and unknown in plants. As indirect evidence from this and previous studies strongly suggests
