UDP-GlcNAc

Overview

UDP-GlcNAc (UDP-N-Acetyl-D-glucosamine) is an important component and precursor of bacterial peptidoglycan. UDP-GlcNAc is a nucleotide sugar used by Glycosyltransferases to synthesize glycoproteins, glycosaminoglycans, glycolipids, and glycoRNA. UDP-GlcNAc also serves as the donor substrate for forming O-GlcNAc, a dynamic intracellular protein modification involved in diverse signaling and disease processes. UDP-GlcNAc is the sugar nucleotide donor for the synthesis of O-GlcNAc modified proteins. UDP-GlcNAc also acts as a full agonist of the P2Y 14 receptor and inhibits the formation of cAMP. UDP-GlcNAc can be used in studies related to bacterial infections.
