Metabolite Identification
Common NameN-acetyl-Muramic acid
DescriptionN-Acetylmuramate, also known as acetylmuramic acid or 4-O-nacmur, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as acylaminosugars. These are organic compounds containing a sugar linked to a chain through N-acyl group. N-Acetylmuramate is possibly soluble (in water) and a moderately basic compound (based on its pKa). N-Acetylmuramate exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans.
