Dear all,

I wondered which amino-sugars can be digested by E. coli.

Sure, Glucosamine can be metabolized by these bugs. But which other amino-derivatized carbohydrates can they devour?

What about 1-Amino-1-deoxy-monosaccharides or 3-amino-3-deoxy-monosaccharides, for example? Is there literature on this?

Best,

Peter
