Metabolism of D-glucosamine and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine in the intact rat.
It has been demonstrated that n-glucosamine and N-acetyln-glucosamine are metabolized in animal tissues to n-fructose via phosphorylated intermediates (14). It has also been shown that n-glucose is converted to n-glucosamine and incorporated into glycoproteins and mucopolysaccharides (Pll), probably through formation of uridine diphosphate derivatives as intermediates (4). Little work has been ...
متن کاملEffect of Hapten, N-acetyl-d-glucosamine, on the Biological Activity of Wheat Lectin
Modulation of the effect of wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) with hapten, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (GlcNAc), in case of pre-sowing treatment of spring wheat (Triticum aestivum cv Rannyaya 93) seeds, on the biological components of the system ’’plant – soil – microorganisms” was studied. The application of WGA (100 nM) stimulated root formation, biomass production, total chlorophyll content and wheat g...
متن کاملThe Non-Canonical Effect of N-Acetyl-D-Glucosamine Kinase on the Formation of Neuronal Dendrites
N-acetylglucosamine kinase (GlcNAc kinase or NAGK; EC 2.7.1.59) is a N-acetylhexosamine kinase that belong to the sugar kinase/heat shock protein 70/actin superfamily. In this study, we investigated both the expression and function of NAGK in neurons. Immunohistochemistry of rat brain sections showed that NAGK was expressed at high levels in neurons but at low levels in astrocytes. Immunocytoch...
متن کاملSynthesis of oseltamivir and tamiphosphor from N-acetyl-D-glucosamine.
Using N-acetyl-D-glucosamine as a starting material, the anti-influenza drugs oseltamivir and tamiphosphor were synthesized via a pivotal intermediate of aldehyde 8. An intramolecular Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons reaction was utilized to construct the highly functionalized cyclohexene ring. The existing N-acetyl group was transformed into an azido group for the subsequent aziridination, followed by ...
متن کاملIs N-acetyl-d-glucosamine a rigid 4C1 chair?
Understanding microsecond-timescale dynamics is crucial to establish three-dimensional (3D) structure-activity relationships in sugars but has been intractable to experiments and simulations. As a consequence, whether arguably the most important chemical scaffold in glycobiology, N-acetyl-d-glucosamine (GlcNAc), deviates from a rigid (4)C(1) chair is unknown. Here, conformer populations and exc...
