Salic acids are nine-carbon carbohydrate α-keto acids that have many important biological functions, including cell-cell recognition and host-pathogen interactions.{26390,6370} N-Acetylneuraminic acid (NANA) is the most abundant sialic acid and is found in bacteria as well as in eukaryotic cells.{26390,26388} The pathways for NANA synthesis and metabolism in bacteria differ from those used in eukaryotic cells.{26388} This sialic acid is an essential component of human brain gangliosides and sialylated glycoproteins.{26389}
