HADA
Chemical Name: 3-[[(7-Hydroxy-2-oxo-2H-1-benzopyran-3-yl)carbonyl]amino]-D-alanine hydrocholoride
Purity: ≥98%
Biological Activity
HADA is a fluorescent D-amino acid. Suitable for labeling peptidoglycans in live bacteria. Results in strong peripheral and septal labeling of diverse bacterial cell populations without affecting growth rates. Displays mitochondrial outer membrane permeability. Excitation/emission λ ~405/450 nm.Scientific Data
Investigating mycobacteria cell wall formation using FDAA HADA. Investigating mycobacteria cell wall formation using fluorescent D-amino acid HADA. Image showing FDAA HADA incorporation in log-phase growth of WT, delta L,D-transpeptidases (LDT) and delta L,D-transpeptidases (LDT) comp cells. Scale = 5 μm. Baranowski et al show FDAAs are incorporated asymmetrically by L,D-transpeptidases.
