N-Acetyl-D-glucosamine

CAS: 7512-17-6

N-acetyl D-glucosamine (GlcNAc) is an aldohexose (2-acetamido-2-deoxyglucose) in which the hydroxyl group at position 2 is replaced by NHAc (Collins, 2006). N-acetyl D-glucosamine forms the exoskeletons of molluscs and insects as the building block of the polysaccharide chitin (Rudrapatnam, 2003). N-acetyl D-glucosamine is a key component of N- and O-linked glycans, present in glycolipids and the glycosaminoglycan hyaluronic acid (Fallacara, 2018). A recent study has suggested that N-acetyl D-glucosamine may have therapeutic potential for COVID-19 as it affects the spike protein-ACE2 receptor interaction during the infection with SARS-CoV-2 virus (Baysal, 2021).
