N-Acetylmuramic acid-alkyne

N-Acetylmuramic acid-alkyne is a derivative of N-acetylmuramic acid (NAM) component of bacterial peptidoglycans. N-Acetylmuramic acid-alkyne incorporates into bacterial peptidoglycans during biosynthesis. N-Acetylmuramic acid-alkyne can be used for fluorescent labeling of peptidoglycans when 'click'-conjugated to a fluorescent dye.
