4-Phospho-D-erythronate serves as a intermediate in the production of pyridoxal 5′-phosphate, particularly in certain bacterial species. It also acts as an inhibitor of ribose 5-phosphate isomerase. Furthermore, phosphorylated aldonic acids exhibit potent inhibitory effects on 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase. Notably, among these inhibitors, 4-phospho-D-erythronate (4PE) and 4-phospho-D-erythronohydroxamate rank among the most potent inhibitors of the Trypanosoma brucei enzyme.
