In vitro study | Ribose-5-phosphate is generally assumed to arise via the oxidative and nonoxidative pentose phosphate pathways. |
biological activity | D-Ribose 5-phosphate is an intermediate product of the oxidative branch of the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP), is the end product of the non-oxidative branch of PPP. D-Ribose 5-phosphate is used for the synthesis of nucleotides and nucleic acids. |
