DescriptionGalactose 1-phosphate, also known as alpha-D-gal-1-p or α-D-gal-1-p, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as monosaccharide phosphates. These are monosaccharides comprising a phosphated group linked to the carbohydrate unit. Galactose 1-phosphate is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Galactose 1-phosphate exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans.
