D-glycero-D-manno-Heptose

Description:
D-glycero-D-manno-heptose is a seven-carbon sugar, specifically a heptose, that plays a significant role in the structure of certain bacterial lipopolysaccharides. It is an aldoheptose, meaning it contains an aldehyde functional group and exhibits stereoisomerism due to the presence of multiple chiral centers. This compound is characterized by its specific configuration at the C2 and C3 positions, which distinguishes it from other heptoses. D-glycero-D-manno-heptose is typically found in the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria, contributing to the structural integrity and functionality of the bacterial cell wall. Its presence is crucial for the virulence of some pathogenic bacteria, as it can influence immune system interactions. The substance is soluble in water and can participate in various biochemical reactions, making it relevant in both microbiology and biochemistry. Its CAS number, 1961-73-5, is a unique identifier that facilitates its recognition in scientific literature and databases.
