Term Name: | L-arabitol catabolic process to xylulose 5-phosphate |
---|---|
Synonyms: | L-arabitol and xylitol degradation, L-arabitol breakdown to xylulose 5-phosphate, L-arabitol degradation to xylulose 5-phosphate, L-arabitol utilization |
Definition: | The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of L-arabitol to form xylulose 5-phosphate. L-arabitol is converted into L-xylulose, which is then phosphorylated to L-xylulose-5-phosphate. This is converted to D-xylulose-5-phosphate via the intermediate L-ribulose-5-phosphate. |
