Glucose 1-phosphate (also called cori ester) is a glucose molecule with a phosphate group on the 1-carbon. It can exist in either the α- or β-anomeric form. Glucose 1-phosphate belongs to the class of organic compounds known as monosaccharide phosphates. These are monosaccharides comprising a phosphated group linked to the carbohydrate unit. Glucose 1-phosphate is the direct product of the reaction in which glycogen phosphorylase cleaves off a molecule of glucose from a greater glycogen structure. It cannot travel down many metabolic pathways and must be interconverted by the enzyme phosphoglucomutase in order to become glucose 6-phosphate. Free glucose 1-phosphate can also react with UTP to form UDP-glucose. It can then return to the greater glycogen structure via glycogen synthase. *Found widely in both plants and animals. A precursor of starch in plants and of glycogen in animals. [CCD] Acquisition and generation of the data is financially supported in part by CREST/JST.

Galactose 1-phosphate

{[(2R,3R,4S,5R,6R)-3,4,5-trihydroxy-6-(hydroxymethyl)oxan-2-yl]oxy}phosphonic acid

C6H13O9P (260.0297178)


Galactose 1-phosphate, also known as D-Galactose-1-phosphate or alpha-D-gal-1-P, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as monosaccharide phosphates. These are monosaccharides comprising a phosphate group linked to the carbohydrate unit. Galactose-1-phosphate is an intermediate in the interconversion of glucose and uridine diphosphate galactose. Galactose 1-phosphate exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to plants to humans. Within humans, galactose 1-phosphate participates in a number of enzymatic reactions. In particular, uridine diphosphate glucose and galactose 1-phosphate can be biosynthesized from uridine diphosphategalactose and glucose 1-phosphate; which is mediated by the enzyme galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase (GALT). In addition, galactose 1-phosphate can be biosynthesized from D-galactose through the action of the enzyme galactokinase. The improper metabolism of galactose-1-phosphate is a characteristic of a condition known as galactosemia (PMID: 7671964). Type I galactosemia is a genetic disorder that is caused by the impairment of galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase (EC 2.7.7.12). Evidence suggests that misfolding of the galactose 1-phosphate uridylyltransferase enzyme is the underlying cause of type I galactosemia (PMID: 23583749). Outside of the human body, galactose 1-phosphate has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as gooseberries, anises, turmerics, caraway, and cumins.
