Crystal Structure of N-Acetylglucosamine [PDF]
Nature, 1964 THE crystal structure of N-acetylglucosamme, C8H15O6N, has been investigated in connexion with the work on lysozyme proceeding in this laboratory1. Salton2 and others have shown that N-acetylglucosamine is a basic constituent of the bacterial cell walls of Micrococcus lysodeikticus, the most commonly used substrate of lysozyme (muramidase), and Wenzel ...

Centrosomes: Til O-GlcNAc Do Us Apart
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2021 The centrosome apparatus is vital for spindle assembly and chromosome segregation during mitotic divisions. Its replication, disjunction and separation have to be fine-tuned in space and time.

A fluorimetric enzyme assay for the diagnosis of Sanfilippo disease type D (MPS IIID) [PDF]
, 1993 4-Methylumbelliferyl-α-N-acetylglucosamine 6-sulphate was synthesized and shown to be a substrate for the lysosomal N-acetylglucosamine-6-sulphate sulphatase (GlcNAc-6S sulphatase). Fibroblasts and leukocytes from 3 different Sanfilippo D patients showed

The Effect of NAG–thiazoline on Morphology and Surface Hydrophobicity of Escherichia Coli [PDF]
, 2004 The β-hexosaminidase inhibitor and structural analog of the putative oxazolium reaction intermediate of lytic transglycosylases, N-acetylglucosamine thiazoline (NAG–thiazoline), was synthesized in 46% overall yield and tested as an inhibitor of ...

Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2008 Background In human and rodents, sperm-zona pellucida binding is mediated by a sperm surface Galactosyltransferase that recognizes N-Acetylglucosamine residues on a glycoprotein ZPC. In large domestic mammals, the role of these molecules remains unclear:

FREE N-ACETYLGLUCOSAMINE IN MARSUPIAL SEMEN [PDF]
Reproduction, 1974 Appreciable quantities of a compound, now identified as N-acetylglucosamine, have been found in deproteinized, deionized aqueous extracts of the seminal plasma of the red kangaroo (Megaleia rufa), tammar wallaby (Macropus eugenii), grey kangaroo (Macropus giganteus) and the ventral segment ofthe two segmented prostate gland (Rodger & Hughes, 1973) of ...

N-Acetylglucosamine Regulates Morphogenesis and Virulence Pathways in Fungi
Journal of Fungi, 2019 N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) is being increasingly recognized for its ability to stimulate cell signaling. This amino sugar is best known as a component of cell wall peptidoglycan in bacteria, cell wall chitin in fungi and parasites, exoskeletons of ...

Phosphofructokinase 1 Glycosylation Regulates Cell Growth and Metabolism [PDF]
, 2012 Cancer cells must satisfy the metabolic demands of rapid cell growth within a continually changing microenvironment. We demonstrated that the dynamic posttranslational modification of proteins by O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAcylation) is a key ...
