Xylulose is a potentially valuable rare sugar used as starting material for antiviral and anticancer drug development in pharmaceutical industries.
We show that hXK is highly specific for d-xylulose as its sugar substrate, and we also present kinetic and structural data on a competitive inhibitor of hXK that could be utilized to probe the role of the GX pathway in metabolic disease.
1 Ιαν 2016 · This review describes the occurrence of L-xylulose in certain metabolic pathways, its bioproduction, and application potential. Chemical structure of L-xylulose. Fungal L-arabinose...
3 Νοε 2015 · L-Xylulose, also known as L-threo-pentulose (Fig. 1), is an intermediate in some metabolic pathways of eukaryotes and prokaryotes (Doten and Mortlock 1985c). In 1913, L-xylulose was first identified in the urine of the patient with pentosuria by Levene and La Forge .
1 Φεβ 2020 · Conversion of lignocellulose to biofuels and chemicals requires three main steps: destroying the lignocellulose structure by pretreatment, hydrolyzing hemicellulose/cellulose to fermentable monomeric sugars by enzymatic saccharification, and finally converting monomeric sugars to chemicals or biofuels by microbial fermentation.
Once inside the yeast cell, xylose is converted by a two-step oxidoreductive isomerization to xylulose (Fig. 1) (Webb and Lee, 1990). Xylose is first reduced to xylitol by a NADH- or NADPH-dependent xylose (aldose) reductase (EC 1.1.1.21; XR).
In our bodies, for example, muscle cells produce movement and nerve cells (neurons) are communication specialists. In this module your goal is to understand the important structural components of cells and how these subunit work together in carrying out life processes.
