Application

Application Comment Organism
synthesis transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana plants expressing three key enzymes of the mammalian Neu5Ac biosynthesis pathway: UDPN-acetylglucosamine 2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase, N-acetylneuraminic acid phosphate synthase, and CMP-Nacetylneuraminic acid synthetase. Simultaneous expression of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase and N-acetylneuraminic acid phosphate synthase results in the generation of significant Neu5Ac amounts of 1275 nmol per g fresh weight in leaves, which can be further converted to cytidine monophospho-N-acetylneuraminic acid by coexpression of CMP-N-acetylneuraminic acid synthetase Mus musculus
