D-Erythrose (50% in water)
D-Erythrose is a four-carbon sugar classified as an aldose. D-Erythrose has unique chemical properties that make it an important intermediate in various metabolic pathways, especially in the biosynthesis of amino acids and nucleotides. It also plays a role in the pentose phosphate pathway, which generates reducing equivalents for biosynthetic reactions and cellular defense against oxidative damage.
