UDP-xylose

Overview

UDP-xylose is an endogenous sugar nucleotide and a catalytic substrate of UDP-xylose synthase (UXS). UDP-xylose is a sugar donor for the synthesis of glycoproteins, polysaccharides , various metabolites and oligosaccharides in plants , vertebrates and fungi, and participates in the synthesis of proteoglycans as a glycosyl donor. UDP-xylose participates in the regulation of the synthesis of extracellular matrix components and can be used to study the mechanism of proteoglycan biosynthesis in glycobiology and related diseases (such as connective tissue diseases)[1][2].
