General Description
N-Acetyl-D-mannosamine (ManNAc) is an essential precursor of N-acetylneuraminic acid (NeuAc) the specific monomer of bacterial capsular polysialic acid (PA)[1].N-Acetyl-D-mannosamine (ManNAc) can be metabolized by GNE and GlcNAc 2-epimerase (Renin binding protein RnBP) into ManNAc-6-phosphate and GlcNAc respectively.N-Acetyl-d-mannosamine (ManNAc) and its derivatives activates hypocretin (HCRT) gene expression in the orexin neurons providing a potential model for the testing of a therapy for neural disorders.
