3-Deoxy-2-keto-D-xylonate lithium salt is a synthetic compound that is used in the synthesis of protamine. It is produced by the reduction of an aldehyde with borohydride. 3-Deoxy-2-keto-D-xylonate lithium salt has been shown to be active against E. cloacae, which can cause diarrhea and other gastrointestinal disorders. 3-Deoxy-2-keto-D-xylonate lithium salt inhibits the growth of E. cloacae by inhibiting glycolaldehyde reductase and aldolases, which are enzymes that are essential for glycolysis and citrate metabolism, respectively. The cleavage products formed by this reaction inhibit bacterial growth by interfering with cell wall biosynthesis, preventing protein synthesis, or blocking ATP production (oxidative phosphorylation).
