Common Namebeta-D-allopyranose
Descriptionbeta-D-allopyranose is a carbohydrate belonging to the class of monosaccharides, specifically a pyranose form of D-allose. Its chemical structure features a six-membered ring containing five carbon atoms and one oxygen atom, with hydroxyl groups (-OH) attached to specific carbon atoms, which influences its reactivity and interactions. The compound has been studied for its potential biological roles, including its binding affinity to various targets; notably, drug enrichment analysis has identified AFF1 as a target for beta-D-allopyranose, alongside other compounds, with molecular docking studies confirming its strong binding potential (PMID:40823550 ). Additionally, computational studies using density functional theory (DFT) have explored the geometric conformations of beta-D-allopyranose, revealing insights into its structural properties and stability at the B3LYP/6-311++G** level of theory (PMID:17204259 ). These studies contribute to the understanding of beta-D-allopyranose's chemical behavior and its potential applications in drug design and metabolic pathways.
