Biochem/physiol Actions

D-Sedoheptulose, also known as D-altro-2-heptulose, facilitates the cyclic regeneration of D-ribulose for carbon dioxide fixation in plant photosynthesis.
Substrate for sedoheptulose kinase CARKL directing macro-phage polarization through control of glucose metabolism. Accumulation under carbondioxide enrichment in leaves. Patients with the autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease cystinosis have elevated urinary concentrations of sedoheptulose.

Packaging

Bottomless glass bottle. Contents are inside inserted fused cone.

Cystinosis is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease caused by mutations in CTNS. The most prevalent CTNS mutation is a homozygous 57-kb deletion that also includes an adjacent gene named SHPK (CARKL), encoding sedoheptulokinase. Patients with this deletion have elevated

In contrast to the well-documented roles of its mono- and bisphosphate esters, the occurrence of free sedoheptulose in plant tissues remains a matter of conjecture. The present work sought to determine the origin of sedoheptulose formation in planta, as well

A facile synthetic approach to 7-O-galloyl-D-sedoheptulose (1), a natural product with notable immunosuppressant activity, was developed. The starting material, 2,7-anhydro-d-sedoheptulose (2), was converted in three steps into 1,3,4,5-tetra-O-benzyl-d-sedoheptulose (5), a key intermediate that allows specific functionalization at C-7 of the
