D-Gulose is a aldohexose sugar that is very rare in nature but has been found in archaea, bacteria, and other eukaryotes. It is a less studied monosaccharide compared to more prevalent sugars like glucose, fructose, or even D-Ribose. However, researchers have explored and used D-Gulose in various ways for specific purposes. Some of the potential applications and uses of D-Gulose in research include metabolic studies, enzyme studies, glycosylation studies, chemical synthesis and modification, biosynthesis pathways, analytical techniques, and biotechnology and microbial engineering.
