Compounds (19)

CompoundDescription
Uridine TriphosphateUridine 5'-(tetrahydrogen triphosphate). A uracil nucleotide containing three phosphate groups esterified to the sugar moiety.
GlutamineA non-essential amino acid present abundantly throughout the body and is involved in many metabolic processes. It is synthesized from GLUTAMIC ACID and AMMONIA. It is the principal carrier of NITROGEN in the body and is an important energy source for many cells.
udp-n-acetylmuramylalanineimportant in peptidoglycan synthesis; used for incorporation of D-glutamic acid into peptidoglycan
N-acetylglucosamine 6-phosphate
glucosamine 6-phosphateRN given refers to parent cpd
acetylglucosamineThe N-acetyl derivative of glucosamine.
diaminopimelic acidA diamino derivative of heptanedioic acid with amino groups at C-2 and C-6 and the general formula (COOH)CH(NH2)CH2CH2CH2CH(NH2)(COOH).
poly(N-acetylglucosamine 1-phosphate)found in cell wall of Micrococcus varians
Uridine Diphosphate N-AcetylglucosamineServes as the biological precursor of insect chitin, of muramic acid in bacterial cell walls, and of sialic acids in mammalian glycoproteins.
undecaprenyl phosphateRN's in Chemline for diphosphate esters: 31589-58-9, 31867-59-1
undecaprenyl pyrophosphate
D-Glutamate
glutamate
alanylalanine, (D)-isomer
n-acetylmuramic acidRN given refers to D-Glucopyranose, (R)-isomer
alanineA non-essential amino acid that occurs in high levels in its free state in plasma. It is produced from pyruvate by transamination. It is involved in sugar and acid metabolism, increases IMMUNITY, and provides energy for muscle tissue, BRAIN, and the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM.
fructose-6-phosphateRN given refers to parent cpd with unspecified isomeric designation
tracheal cytotoxin, bordetella pertussisRN & structure given in first source; a disaccharide-tetrapeptide derivative of the cell wall peptidoglycan layer; attaches to ciliated epithelial cells resulting in their destruction
acetyl coenzyme aAcetyl CoA participates in the biosynthesis of fatty acids and sterols, in the oxidation of fatty acids and in the metabolism of many amino acids. It also acts as a biological acetylating agent.
