D-Mannoheptulose
D-Mannoheptulose is a natural, seven-carbon monosaccharide found in avocado fruits. It behaves as a competitive inhibitor of hexokinase, an enzyme that phosphorylates hexoses such as glucose. The inhibition of hexokinase leads to the prevention of glycolysis.Extensive research has reported that using D-mannoheptulose to interfere with hexokinases ultimately inhibits the synthesis and release of insulin. This has had a significant impact on studies involving diabetes and anti-aging.Product SpecificationsD-mannoheptuloseD-mano-2-heptuloseMOLECULAR BIOLOGY GRADEFormula:C7H14O7MW:210.19 g/molColor/Purity:Off-white crystalline powder
