| | 2-C-Methyl-D-erythritol Usage And Synthesis |
| Uses | (2S,3R)-2-Methyl-1,2,3,4-butanetetrol is a secondary organic aerosol formed through photooxidation of isoprene. It was identified as a glucide in methanol extracts of Carum ajowan fruit. | | General Description | (2S,3R)-2-methylbutane-1,2,3,4-tetrol was identified as a glucide in methanol extracts of Carum ajowan fruit. | | Biochem/physiol Actions | Metabolite of the non-mevalonate MEP pathway, generally found in prokaryotes, as precursor to isoprenoids as well as non-isoprenoids like vitamins. As this pathway is not present in humans, it is of interest for the development of bacterium-specific drugs in the search for treatments of infectious diseases. |
