Description

N-Acetyl-a-D-glucosamine is a low energy, vivo animal, chemical biology, expressed, oligosaccharides, acceptor. It is an acetylated amino sugar that can be found in the cell membrane surface of bacteria and is also a protein target for acetylation. In addition to this function, NAG has been shown to be involved in protein synthesis and growth factor activity. It has been used as a substrate for the production of monoclonal antibodies and has been shown to have stereoselective effects on the antibody response.
