Bioactivity | D-Ribose 5-phosphate disodium is an intermediate of the oxidative branch of the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) and an end product of the nonoxidative branch of the PPP. D-Ribose 5-phosphate disodium is used in the synthesis of nucleotides and nucleic acids[1]. |
Invitro | Ribose-5-phosphate is generally assumed to arise via the oxidative and nonoxidative pentose phosphate pathways[1]. |
