5-Deoxy-D-ribose (CAS 13039-75-3)
QUICK LINKS
In the shikimate pathway, a pathway for the production of aromatic amino acids, 5-Deoxy-D-ribose serves as an intermediate molecule. It can be synthesized from D-ribose and shikimic acid. The enzyme ribose 5′-phosphate kinase catalyzes the biosynthesis of 5-Deoxy-D-ribose by converting ribose 5′-phosphate into 5-deoxy-D-ribose phosphate. This conversion requires ATP as an energy source, and its progress is hindered by phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate (PRPP). For the asymmetric synthesis of 5-Deoxy-D-ribose, researchers have successfully employed a chiral Lewis acid catalyst. The molecular structure of 5-Deoxy-D-ribose has been elucidated using NMR spectroscopy. While mammalian cells possess shikimate pathways, plants and bacteria lack this pathway.
