Metabolite Identification
Common NameL-Tagatose-6-phosphate
DescriptionL-Tagatose-6-phosphate is a substrate for galactitol-1-phosphate 5-dehydrogenase. Specifically this enzyme converts galactitol 1-phosphate to tagatose 6-phosphate. Galactitol (dulcitol) is a sugar alcohol and is actually the reduction product of galactose. L-tagatose 6-phosphate is an intermediate in galactose metabolism Tagatose is a naturally occurring monosaccharide, specifically a hexose. It is often found in dairy products, and is very similar in texture to sucrose (table sugar). E. coli can use tagatose and galactose as a carbon source.
