Application
L(+)-Erythrose, an aldotetrose rare sugar, may be used in glycation studies and as a reference compound in tetrose carbohydrate separation and quantitation analysis. It may be used to help identify and characterize erythrose reductase(s) and to study the mechanisms of mutarotation in monosugars. L-Erythrose may be used as a reference compound in sugar metabolism analysis.

Production of L-erythrose via L-erythrulose from erythritol using microbial and enzymatic reactions.

Journal of bioscience and bioengineering, 92(3), 237-241 (2005-10-20)
A rare aldotetrose, L-erythrose, was produced from erythritol via a two-step reaction. In the first step, complete oxidation of erythritol to L-erythrulose was achieved by using Gluconobacter frateurii IFO 3254. Washed cell suspension of the strain grown on tryptic soy

The osmotolerant yeast, Candida magnoliae, which was isolated from honeycomb, produces erythritol from sugars such as fructose, glucose, and sucrose. Erythrose reductase in C. magnoliae (CmER) reduces erythrose to erythritol with concomitant oxidation of NAD(P)H. Sequence analysis of the 5'-flanking

The aim of this study was to examine the impact of divalent copper, iron, manganese, and zinc ions on the production of erythritol from glycerol by Yarrowia lipolytica and their effect on the activity of erythrose reductase. No inhibitory effect

We have identified the enzyme responsible for erythritol utilization and its reaction product in the yeast Lipomyces starkeyi CBS 1807. The enzyme, a polyol dehydrogenase requiring NAD+ as a coenzyme, was induced by erythritol in this yeast. We confirmed that

The acid catalysis of the mutarotation mechanism in the two aldotetroses, d-erythrose and d-threose, has been studied at B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) computational level in gas phase and in solution employing the PCM-water model. The open-chain, the furanose and the connecting TS structures
