Shikimic acid 3-phosphate
(3R,4S,5R)-4,5-dihydroxy-3-(phosphonooxy)cyclohex-1-ene-1-carboxylic acid
Shikimic acid 3-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. Shikimic acid 3-phosphate is soluble (in water) and a moderately acidic compound (based on its pKa). Shikimic acid 3-phosphate can be found in a number of food items such as date, hard wheat, common sage, and peppermint, which makes shikimic acid 3-phosphate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Shikimic acid 3-phosphate exists in E.coli (prokaryote) and yeast (eukaryote).
