General description

D-Glucosamine 6-phosphate, the natural form of glucosamine, is a monosaccharide produced during hexosamine biosynthesis pathway by the enzyme glucosamine-6-phosphate deaminase from the two substrates fructose 6-phosphate and glutamine.

Other Notes

Stability is greater than that of the sodium salt.

Escherichia coli has been engineered to produce isobutanol, with titers reaching greater than the toxicity level. However, the specific effects of isobutanol on the cell have never been fully understood. Here, we aim to identify genotype-phenotype relationships in isobutanol response.
