Definition
D-fructose 1-phosphate, also known as 1-O-phosphono-D-fructose or fructose-1-phosphate, barium salt, (D)-isomer, is a member of the class of compounds known as monosaccharide phosphates. Monosaccharide phosphates are monosaccharides comprising a phosphated group linked to the carbohydrate unit. D-fructose 1-phosphate is soluble (in water) and a moderately acidic compound (based on its pKa). D-fructose 1-phosphate can be found in a number of food items such as rye, ucuhuba, sugar apple, and spelt, which makes D-fructose 1-phosphate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. D-fructose 1-phosphate exists in all eukaryotes, ranging from yeast to humans.
Belongs to the class of organic compounds known as monosaccharide phosphates. These are monosaccharides comprising a phosphated group linked to the carbohydrate unit.
