2-Deoxy-α-L-erythro-pentofuranose

Description:

2-Deoxy-α-L-erythro-pentofuranose is a sugar derivative characterized by its five-membered furanose ring structure, which is a cyclic form of a pentose sugar. This compound is a deoxysugar, meaning it lacks one oxygen atom compared to its parent sugar, ribose. Specifically, it is a 2-deoxy sugar, indicating that the hydroxyl group at the second carbon is replaced by a hydrogen atom. This modification impacts its biological function and reactivity, making it a crucial component in various biochemical pathways, particularly in the synthesis of nucleotides and nucleic acids. The α-anomer refers to the orientation of the hydroxyl group at the anomeric carbon, which is positioned below the plane of the furanose ring in this case. 2-Deoxy-α-L-erythro-pentofuranose is significant in molecular biology, especially in the context of DNA, where it forms the backbone of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), contributing to the stability and integrity of genetic material. Its unique structural features also influence its interactions with enzymes and other biomolecules.
