Description

Phenyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside is a phenolic compound that can be found in plant cell walls. It is a monosaccharide with an ester linkage, which is hydrolyzed by esterases to yield protocatechuic acid. Phenyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside is an inhibitor of sugar transport and has been shown to have protective effects on the liver when it is exposed to toxic substances. This sugar also binds to proteins, which may alter the function of these proteins. Phenyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside has been shown to inhibit glycolysis in hepatic tissues and tannins are released from erythrocytes treated with this substance. Phenyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside has been shown to be chemically stable under acidic conditions.
