N-Acetylneuraminic acid-13C-1

Description:

N-Acetylneuraminic acid-13C-1, also known as sialic acid, is a derivative of neuraminic acid and is characterized by the presence of an acetyl group at the C-5 position. This compound is notable for its role in biochemistry, particularly in cell recognition and signaling processes, as it is commonly found on the surface of glycoproteins and glycolipids in animal cells. The "13C-1" designation indicates that one of the carbon atoms in the molecule is a stable isotope of carbon, which is often used in metabolic studies and tracing experiments. The presence of the 13C isotope allows researchers to track the incorporation of this compound into metabolic pathways. N-Acetylneuraminic acid is involved in various biological functions, including immune response modulation and pathogen recognition. Its CAS number, 1032998-24-5, uniquely identifies this specific isotopically labeled compound in chemical databases, facilitating its study and application in research and industry.

N-Acetyl-D-[2-13C]neuraminic acid is a glycan that is found in human serum. The chemical structure of N-acetyl-D-[2-13C]neuraminic acid has been analyzed using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and mass spectrometry, showing that it contains two 13C atoms. N-acetyl--D-[2-13C]neuraminic acid is a sialic acid that is bound to a protein called surface glycoprotein. It may be involved in the transport of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) across the membrane by an ATP-dependent transport system. It also acts as an enzyme inhibitor for glycoside hydrolases, which are enzymes that break down glycans. N-acetyl--D-[2-13C]neuraminic acid has been shown to have properties similar to those of other sialic acids and can be
