sedoheptulose


Also found in: Encyclopedia, Wikipedia.

se·do·hep·tu·lose

(sē'dō-hep'tyū-lōs),
A 2-ketoheptulose formed metabolically in the pentose monophosphate pathway as the 7-phosphate by condensation of d-xylulose 5-phosphate and d-ribose 5-phosphate, splitting out d-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate; the unphosphorylated sugar is found naturally in Sedum (stonecrop).
Synonym(s): d-altro-2-heptulose
