Metabolite Identification
Common Namebeta-D-Ribopyranose
DescriptionBeta-D-ribopyranose is a member of the chemical class known as Pentoses. These are monosaccharides in which the carbohydrate moiety contains five carbon atoms. Ribose 5-phosphate is involved in the pentose phosphate pathway and ribose degradation. The pentose phosphate pathway plays several key roles in metabolism including supply of biosynthetic carbon skeletons and reducing power. (PMID 9546650 ) Ribose-5-phosphate isomerase A (RpiA) plays an important role in interconverting between ribose-5-phosphate (R5P) and ribulose-5-phosphate in the pentose phosphate pathway and the Calvin cycle. (PMID 19214439 ). In Escherichia coli, RpiA catalyzes the interconversion of ribose-5-phosphate and ribulose-5-phosphate and is a key enzyme in the pentose phosphate pathway. (PMID 12182339 ).
