Metabolite Identification
Common NameL-Sorbose
DescriptionD-Fructose, also known as D-tagatose or D-lyxo-2-hexulose, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as monosaccharides. Monosaccharides are compounds containing one carbohydrate unit not glycosidically linked to another such unit, and no set of two or more glycosidically linked carbohydrate units. Monosaccharides have the general formula CnH2nOn. D-Fructose exists as a solid, possibly soluble (in water), and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa) molecule. D-Fructose exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. D-Fructose participates in a number of enzymatic reactions, within cattle. In particular, D-Fructose can be biosynthesized from sorbitol through its interaction with the enzyme sorbitol dehydrogenase. In addition, D-Fructose can be biosynthesized from Beta-D-fructose 2-phosphate through the action of the enzyme 14 kda phosphohistidine phosphatase. In cattle, D-fructose is involved in the metabolic pathway called the fructose and mannose degradation pathway. D-Fructose is a potentially toxic compound.

Enzymes

General function:
Amino acid transport and metabolism
Specific function:
Polyol dehydrogenase that catalyzes the reversible NAD(+)-dependent oxidation of various sugar alcohols. Is mostly active with xylitol, D-sorbitol (D-glucitol) and L-iditol as substrates, leading to the C2-oxidized products D-xylulose, D-fructose and L-sorbose, respectively (PubMed:9143345). Is a key enzyme in the polyol pathway that interconverts glucose and fructose via sorbitol, which constitutes an important alternate route for glucose metabolism. May play a role in sperm motility by using sorbitol as an alternative energy source for sperm motility (By similarity). Cannot use NADP(+) as the electron acceptor. Has no activity on ethanol, methanol, glycerol, galactitol and fructose 6-phosphate (PubMed:9143345).
