#BiochemistryDSP #Uronicacidpathway #CarbohydrateMetabolism
Uronic acid pathway, is an alternative pathway for the oxidation of glucose.In this pathway energy is not produced. Major function is to produce D-Glucuronic acid which is mainly utilized for detoxication of foreign chemicals (Xenobiotics). Inherited deficiency of xylitol dehydrogenase enzyme of uronic acid pathway produces essential pentosuria. L-Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) is produced from glucuronic acid using uronic acid pathway in some animals but not in man and other primates.
