An improved total synthesis of UDP-N-acetyl-muramic acid
摘要:
Biochemical testing for novel inhibitors of Mur ligases requires several commercially unavailable and structurally complex substrates. We describe a modified synthetic strategy for the total chemical synthesis of the MurC ligase substrate UDP-Nacetyl-muramic acid which includes several improvements over published methods, especially with regard to purification procedures. The synthetic strategy is applicable for the synthesis of further Mur ligase substrates. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
