General description
(2S,3R)-2-methylbutane-1,2,3,4-tetrol was identified as a glucide in methanol extracts of Carum ajowan fruit.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Metabolite of the non-mevalonate MEP pathway, generally found in prokaryotes, as precursor to isoprenoids as well as non-isoprenoids like vitamins. As this pathway is not present in humans, it is of interest for the development of bacterium-specific drugs in the search for treatments of infectious diseases.
