| Cat# | DIA-721 |
| Descriptions | GlcNAc kinase (EcNagK) from Escherichia coli specifically phosphorylates N-acetylglucosamine at the 6-hydroxyl group to generate N-acetylglucosamine-6-phosphate, participates in microbial amino sugar salvage metabolism, and provides a key intermediate for UDP-GlcNAc biosynthesis pathways. |
| Applications | GlcNAc kinase (EcNagK) is suitable for amino sugar salvage metabolism detection kits and UDP-GlcNAc biosynthesis pathway assay reagent development. |
