Inhibitory studies of Neisseria meningitidis and Campylobacter jejuni N-acetylneuraminic acid synthase
N-Acetylneuraminic acid synthase (NANAS) is an enzyme responsible for the biosynthesis of N-acetylneuraminic acid (NANA). NANA is the most common form of a group of nine carbon sugar molecules called the sialic acids. NANA production is common in mammalian cells for vital physiological processes. A...
