3-Deoxy-D-manno-2-octulosonic acid, ammonium salt is extensively used in molecular biology and biochemistry research for its role as a component of lipopolysaccharides (LPS) in Gram-negative bacteria. Scientists utilize this compound to study the structure and function of LPS, as well as their interactions with the immune system. It is a critical tool for probing the biosynthesis of LPS and the mechanisms by which bacteria construct their outer membranes. In the study of bacterial pathogenesis, 3-Deoxy-D-manno-2-octulosonic acid, ammonium salt is instrumental in understanding how LPS contribute to the virulence of pathogenic bacteria. The compound is also valuable in the field of structural biology, where it aids in the modeling and analysis of LPS architecture and its role in bacterial defense mechanisms.
