General description

N-Glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) is a nonhuman sialic acid molecule synthesized in pigs but not in humans, that has a role as a mammalian metabolite and an antigen. This hydroxylated form of sialic acid, specifically N-acetylneuraminic acid, features a glycolyl substituent on nitrogen and a beta-configuration at the anomeric center. The biosynthesis of N-glycolylneuraminic acid involves the enzymatic activity of cytidine monophosphate-N-acetylneuraminate (CMP-Neu5Ac) hydroxylase.
In humans, the absence of endogenous production results from a gene mutation affecting CMP-Neu5Ac hydroxylase, the enzyme responsible for converting N-acetylneuraminic acid into Neu5Gc. However, Neu5Gc can accumulate in human cells through external ingestion from dietary sources like red meat and dairy products. N-Glycolylneuraminic acid is a versatile compound that finds application in cell biology, metabolomics and biochemical research

Application

N-Glycolylneuraminic acid has been used:
  • as a sugar in microtiter biofilm methodologic approach for the enhancement of biofilm formation
  • as a standard for the determination of sialic acids in the nervous system of silkworm and to find the variations of sialic acids among different developmental stages.
  • as a standard in the high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analyses to detect the molecular species of sialic acid (Sia) species using 1,2-diamino-4,5-methylenedioxy-benzene (DMB) as a fluorogenic compound

Biochem/physiol Actions

N-Glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) functions as an important tool for profiling anti-Neu5Gc antibodies and sialic acid-binding proteins.

Features and Benefits

  • Ideal for Metabolomics, Biochemical and Cell Biology research
  • Versatile and adaptable for wide variety of laboratory and research applications

The receptor specificity of influenza viruses is one factor that allows avian influenza viruses to cross the species barrier. The recent transmissions of avian H5N1 and H9N2 influenza viruses from chickens and/or quails to humans indicate that avian influenza viruses

Sialic acids constitute a family of negatively charged structurally diverse monosaccharides that are commonly presented on the termini of glycans in higher animals and some microorganisms. In addition to N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac), N-glycolyl neuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) is among the most

N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) is an immunogenic sugar of dietary origin that metabolically incorporates into diverse native glycoconjugates in humans. Anti-Neu5Gc antibodies are detected in all human sera, though with variable levels and epitope-recognition profiles. These antibodies likely play a role

Feline panleukopenia virus (FPV) is a pathogen whose canine-adapted form (canine parvovirus (CPV)) emerged in 1978. These viruses infect by binding host transferrin receptor type-1 (TfR), but also hemagglutinate erythrocytes. We show that hemagglutination involves selective recognition of the non-human

Influenza viruses of gallinaceous poultry and wild aquatic birds usually have distinguishable receptor-binding properties. Here we used a panel of synthetic sialylglycopolymers and solid-phase receptor-binding assays to characterize receptor-binding profiles of about 70 H7 influenza viruses isolated from aquatic birds
