A chemical synthesis of ketopentose-5-phosphates that are involved in the pentose phosphate pathway has been developed. The ketopentose phosphates, d-ribulose-5-phosphate and d-xylulose-5-phosphate, were prepared in five steps starting from known intermed

D-Arabinitol 1-phosphate (Ara-ol1-P), a substrate for d-arabinitol- phosphate dehydrogenase (APDH), was chemically synthesized from d-arabinonic acid in five steps (O-acetylation, chlorination, reduction, phosphorylation, and de-O-acetylation). Ara-ol1-P was used as a substrate for the characterization of APDH from Bacillus halodurans. APDH converts Ara-ol1-P to xylulose 5-phosphate in the oxidative reaction; both NAD+ and NADP+ were accepted as co-factors. Kinetic parameters for the oxidative and reductive reactions are consistent with a ternary complex mechanism.
UTILIZATION OF ENZYMES IN ORGANIC CHEMISTRY : TRANSKETOLASE CATALYZED SYNTHESIS OF KETOSES

Substrate specificity of bakers' yeast transketolase has been studied: the enzyme appears to be enantioselective towards the acceptor aldehyde.L-erythrulose, D-xylulose and 5-deoxy-D-xylulose have been synthesized by spinach transketolase catalyzed condensation of hydroxypyruvate and the corresponding aldehyde.
