• Descripción: Pseudaminic acid is a sugar molecule that is found in the cell walls of bacteria, where it provides structural support. It is synthesized enzymatically by transferring the terminal hydroxyl group from glucose-1-phosphate to glycerol-3-phosphate. Pseudaminic acid can be chemoenzymatically synthesized in a scalable manner and has been shown to inhibit the growth of infectious bacteria in biological studies. Structural studies have revealed that pseudaminic acid contains an hydroxyl group and two glycosidic bonds, which are formed between the carbon atom at position C2 and C6 of glucose. This molecule also has an ester linkage between C1 and C2 of mannose. Pseudaminic acid is biosynthesized through a series of reactions that involve phosphorylation, dephosphorylation, and oxidation. This molecule also participates in protein glycosylation as well as water molecules that hydrogen bond
