Chemical Information
NameFructose 6-phosphate
DescriptionFructose 6-phosphate, also known as neuberg ester or D-fructose-6-p, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as hexose phosphates. These are carbohydrate derivatives containing a hexose substituted by one or more phosphate groups. The open chain form of D-fructose 6-phosphate. Fructose 6-phosphate is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Fructose 6-phosphate exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. fructose 6-phosphate and L-glutamine can be converted into glucosamine 6-phosphate and L-glutamic acid through the action of the enzyme glutamine--fructose-6-phosphate aminotransferase. In humans, fructose 6-phosphate is involved in homocarnosinosis. Outside of the human body, Fructose 6-phosphate has been detected, but not quantified in, carrots and milk (cow). This could make fructose 6-phosphate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods.
