1-deoxy-L-glycero-tetrulose 4-phosphate
1-deoxy-l-glycero-tetrulose 4-phosphate, also known as 3,4-dihydroxy-2-butanone 4-phosphate or 2-hydroxy-3-oxobutyl phosphate, is a member of the class of compounds known as monoalkyl phosphates. Monoalkyl phosphates are organic compounds containing a phosphate group that is linked to exactly one alkyl chain. 1-deoxy-l-glycero-tetrulose 4-phosphate is soluble (in water) and a moderately acidic compound (based on its pKa). 1-deoxy-l-glycero-tetrulose 4-phosphate can be found in a number of food items such as chinese chives, carob, fruits, and cherimoya, which makes 1-deoxy-l-glycero-tetrulose 4-phosphate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. 1-deoxy-l-glycero-tetrulose 4-phosphate exists in E.coli (prokaryote) and yeast (eukaryote).
