UDP-4-dehydro-6-deoxy-D-glucose
UDP-4-dehydro-6-deoxy-D-glucose, also known as UDP-4-keto-6-deoxy-D-glucose, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as pyrimidine nucleotide sugars. These are pyrimidine nucleotides bound to a saccharide derivative through the terminal phosphate group. UDP-4-dehydro-6-deoxy-D-glucose is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Outside of the human body, UDP-4-dehydro-6-deoxy-D-glucose has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as Oregon yampahs, oriental wheat, Chinese mustards, blackcurrants, and pomegranates. This could make UDP-4-dehydro-6-deoxy-D-glucose a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. UDP-4-dehydro-6-deoxy-D-glucose is synthesized from UDP-glucose via the enzyme UDP-glucose 4,6-dehydratase. UDP-4-dehydro-6-deoxy-D-glucose is synthesized from UDP-glucose through the enzyme UDP-glucose 4,6-dehydratase. [HMDB]. UDP-4-dehydro-6-deoxy-D-glucose is found in many foods, some of which are alaska wild rhubarb, soy bean, ginkgo nuts, and common beet.
