Chemical Structure
N-Acetylneuraminate lyase (CgNal)
Synonym(s): Sialic acid aldolase (CgNal)
- CAS No.: 9027-60-5
- Formula:N/A
- Molecular Weight:N/A
SMILES: [N-Acetylneuraminate lyase (CgNal)]
Biological Activity: N-Acetylneuraminate lyase (CgNal) (Sialic acid aldolase (CgNal)) is a rate-limiting enzyme in bacteria metabolism that catalyzes the reversible aldol cleavage of sialic acid, and it regulates the overall metabolism of the bacterial sialic acid catabolic pathway. N-Acetylneuraminate lyase (CgNal) catalyzes the reversible condensation reaction of pyruvate and N-acetyl-d-mannosamine (ManNAc) to produce sialic acid N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac). The protein expression of N-Acetylneuraminate lyase is downregulated at the translational level under the regulation of methyl methanesulfonate, and this change significantly impairs the adhesion and invasion abilities of bacteria to eukaryotic cells. N-Acetylneuraminate lyase is a key virulence-related protein in various pathogenic bacteria and is considered an antibiotic drug target. N-Acetylneuraminate lyase (CgNal) can be used in studies of invasive (extraintestinal) infectious diseases, Crohn's disease, and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus infections[1][2][3][4].
