Tri-N-acetylchitotriose

N,N',N''-Triacetylchitotriose

N,N',N''-Triacetylchitotriose, also known as Triacetylchitotriose or (GlcNAc)3, is a trimer of N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) units. This specific oligosaccharide is a building block derived from chitin, a common structural polysaccharide in fungi and arthropods, and is studied for its various biological activities, including its roles in innate immunity and plant defense signaling.
