Glucosamine 6-phosphate has been used to accelerate enzyme-cleavage of DNA plasmids.
Biochem/physiol Actions
D-Glucosamine 6-phosphate, the natural form of glucosamine, is a monosaccharide produced during hexosamine biosynthesis pathway

The glmS-riboswitch is unique among riboswitch families as it represents a metabolite-dependent ribozyme that undergoes self-cleavage upon recognition of glucosamin-6-phosphate. The glmS-riboswitch is located in the 5'-untranslated region of bacterial genes involved in cell wall biosynthesis. Therefore, this riboswitch represents
Self-cleaving glmS ribozymes selectively bind glucosamine-6-phosphate (GlcN6P) and use this metabolite as a cofactor to promote self-cleavage by internal phosphoester transfer. Representatives of the glmS ribozyme class are found in Gram-positive bacteria where they reside in the 5' untranslated regions

The main aim of our study was to determine the physiological function of NagA enzyme in the Listeria monocytogenes cell. The primary structure of the murein of L. monocytogenes is very similar to that of Escherichia coli, the main differences
A novel post-translational modification of threonine, β-N-acetylglucosaminyl-phosphate, was recently discovered on assembly protein AP180, a protein which plays a crucial role in clathrin coated vesicle formation in synaptic vesicle endocytosis (SVE). Herein, we report studies aimed at probing the effect

We have synthesized a light-activatable ("caged") derivative of glucosamine-6-phosphate (GlcN6P), which only upon irradiation becomes a cofactor for the glmS riboswitch. This glmS riboswitch maintains its activity when embedded in the 3'-untranslated region of eukaryotic mRNA molecules and caged GlcN6P
