L-Xylonic acid-1,4-lactone

CAS: 68035-75-6

L-Xylonic acid-1,4-lactone is an enzyme that functions as a glycolytic enzyme. It catalyzes the conversion of D-xylose to L-xylonic acid and L-xylonic acid-1,4-lactone. This enzyme is expressed in leukemia HL60 cells and is activated by acidic conditions. L-Xylonic acid-1,4-lactone has been shown to be catabolized by the enzyme xylanase. The kinetic properties of this reaction have been studied using mass spectrometric techniques and biochemical methods. The rate of the reaction was found to be dependent on the presence of divalent cations (Mg2+ or Ca2+) or monovalent ions (Na+ or K+). L-Xylonic acid 1,4 lactone also catabolizes glucose with a similar rate constant.
