SpeciesSaccharomyces cerevisiae
StrainBaker's yeast
DescriptionD-Erythrose 4-phosphate, also known as D-erythrose-4-p or 4-O-phosphono-D-erythrose, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as monosaccharide phosphates. These are monosaccharides comprising a phosphated group linked to the carbohydrate unit. D-Erythrose 4-phosphate is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). D-Erythrose 4-phosphate exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. xylulose 5-phosphate and D-erythrose 4-phosphate can be biosynthesized from β-D-fructose 6-phosphate and D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate; which is catalyzed by the enzyme transketolase. In yeast, D-erythrose 4-phosphate is involved in the metabolic pathway called the riboneogenesis pathway.
