| uridine diphosphate glucuronic acid | <chemical> A nucleoside diphosphate sugar which serves as a source of glucuronic acid for polysaccharide biosynthesis. It may also be epimerised to udp iduronic acid, which donates iduronic acid to polysaccharides. In animals, udp glucuronic acid is used for formation of many glucosiduronides with various aglycones. Chemical name: alpha-D-Glucopyranuronic acid, 1-P'-ester with uridine 5'-(trihydrogen diphosphate) (12 Dec 1998) |

| uridine diphosphate n-acetylgalactosamine | <chemical> A nucleoside diphosphate sugar which serves as a source of n-acetylgalactosamine for glycoproteins, sulfatides and cerebrosides. Chemical name: Uridine 5'-(trihydrogen diphosphate), P'-(2-(acetylamino)-2-deoxy-alpha-D-galactopyranosyl) ester (12 Dec 1998) |
| uridine diphosphate n-acetylglucosamine | <chemical> Serves as the biological precursor of insect chitin, of muramic acid in bacterial cell walls, and of sialic acids in mammalian glycoproteins. Chemical name: Uridine 5'-(trihydrogen diphosphate), P'-(2-(acetylamino)-2-deoxy-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl) ester (12 Dec 1998) |
| uridine diphosphate n-acetylmuramic acid | A nucleoside diphosphate sugar which is formed from udp-n-acetylglucosamine and phosphoenolpyruvate. It serves as the building block upon which peptidoglycan is formed. (12 Dec 1998) |
| uridine diphosphate xylose | <chemical> The decarboxylation product of udpglucuronic acid, which is used for formation of the xylosides of seryl hydroxyl groups in mucoprotein synthesis. Also forms plant xylans. Chemical name: Uridine 5'-(trihydrogen diphosphate), P'-alpha-D-xylopyranosyl ester (12 Dec 1998) |

Synonym: 5-phosphoribose 1-diphosphate. Acronym: PRPP (05 Mar 2000) |
| fructose-1,6-diphosphate reductase | <enzyme> From bovine lens; reduces fructose-1,6-diphosphate to sorbitol-1,6-diphosphate in presence of NADH; 3 isoenzymes which copurify with lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes Registry number: EC 1.1.1.- Synonym: fdp reductase (26 Jun 1999) |
| fructose-diphosphate aldolase | <enzyme> An enzyme of the lyase class that catalyses the cleavage of fructose 1,6-biphosphate to form dihydroxyacetone phosphate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. The enzyme also acts on (3s,4r)-ketose 1-phosphates. The yeast and bacterial enzymes are zinc proteins. (enzyme nomenclature, 1992) e.c. 4.1.2.13. Chemical name: D-Fructose-1,6-biphosphate D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate-lyase Registry number: EC 4.1.2.13 (12 Dec 1998) |
