D-Erythro-imidazole-glycerol-phosphate
D-Erythro-imidazole-glycerol-phosphate belongs to the class of organic compounds known as monoalkyl phosphates. These are organic compounds containing a phosphate group that is linked to exactly one alkyl chain. D-Erythro-imidazole-glycerol-phosphate is a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa). Outside of the human body, D-erythro-imidazole-glycerol-phosphate has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as mammee apples, scarlet beans, grass pea, olives, and bog bilberries. This could make D-erythro-imidazole-glycerol-phosphate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. D-Erythro-imidazole-glycerol-phosphate is an intermediate in histidine metabolism. It is a substrate for imidazoleglycerol-phosphate dehydratase (hisB) and can be generated from phosphoribulosylformimino-AICAR-P. D-Erythro-imidazole-glycerol-phosphate is an intermediate in Histidine metabolism. It is a substrate for imidazoleglycerol-phosphate dehydratase (hisB) and can be generated from Phosphoribulosyl-formimino-AICAR-phosphate then it is converted to Imidazole-acetol phosphate. [HMDB]. D-Erythro-imidazole-glycerol-phosphate is found in many foods, some of which are buffalo currant, fruits, hyacinth bean, and small-leaf linden.
