Infobox references

3-Deoxy-D-manno-oct-2-ulosonic acid or KDO is an ulosonic acid of a 2-ketooctose which is used by bacteria in the synthesis of lipopolysaccharides.^[1] The D-manno prefix indicates that four chiral centers have the same configuration as D-mannose.

The cyclization of 3-deoxy-D-manno-oct-2-ulosonic acid to the β-anomer. The chiral centers are indicated by asterisks.
