a-D-Arabinofuranoside, methyl

Description:

α-D-Arabinofuranoside, methyl, with the CAS number 56607-40-0, is a methylated derivative of the sugar arabinose. This compound is characterized by its furanose form, which is a five-membered ring structure that includes four carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. It typically exhibits a sweet taste, common to many sugars, and is soluble in water due to its hydroxyl groups, which can form hydrogen bonds with water molecules. The methylation of the hydroxyl group at the anomeric carbon enhances its stability and alters its reactivity compared to its non-methylated counterpart. This compound is often used in biochemical research and applications, particularly in the study of glycosylation processes and carbohydrate chemistry. Its structural features allow it to participate in various chemical reactions, making it a valuable intermediate in organic synthesis. Additionally, its biological properties may be of interest in the development of pharmaceuticals or as a potential prebiotic.

Methyl a-D-arabinofuranoside is an inhibitor of the enzyme D-arabinonolactate synthase, which is involved in the synthesis of arabinose from D-ribulose. It can be used for the diagnosis and treatment of pediatric patients with high activity index values in their blood. This drug has been shown to inhibit transcriptional regulation in human erythrocytes and to have structural similarities to the natural substrate. Methyl a-D-arabinofuranoside has also been shown to inhibit the activities of enzymes involved in cellular respiration, protein synthesis, and DNA replication. This inhibition leads to cell death by apoptosis or necrosis. The group P2 methyl a-D-arabinofuranoside (MAA) was tested as a potential analytical method for wastewater treatment; it was found that MAA could be used as an effective tool for removing organic matter from wastewater.
