General description
L-Arabinofuranose is a fundamental pentose sugar with a five-membered ring structure, serving as the mirror-image enantiomer to D-arabinofuranose. It falls within the class of organic compounds known as pentoses, which consist of monosaccharides featuring a carbohydrate structure composed of five carbon atoms.In biochemistry, L-Arabinofuranose plays a vital role in the synthesis of D-ribose, a key molecule in various biochemical pathways, including metabolomics. Additionally, L-Arabinofuranose is abundantly found in the cell walls and intercellular matrix polysaccharides of higher plant species, such as arabinofuranans, highlighting its significance in plant biology and the structural components of plant cells. In biochemical and cell culture studies, L-arabinofuranose can be utilized to investigate a range of biological processes, enabling the exploration of plant cell wall composition, protein glycosylation, and disease modeling, which are essential in metabolomics and drug development research.
Application
L-Arabinofuranose finds application in metabolomics, biochemical, and drug discovery research.
