Synthesis of Uridine 5′-(L-Arabinofuranosyl pyrophosphate) and the Structure of the UDP-L-arabinose Formed in Plants from UDP-α-D-xylopyranose

Abstract
Uridine 5′-(L-arabinofuranosyl pyrophosphate) and uridine 5′-(β-L-arabinopyranosyl pyrophosphate) have been synthesized chemically and compared with the UDP-L-arabinose formed from UDP-α-D-xylopyranose and UDP-α-D-glucuronic acid by plant particulate fractions. It is concluded that the product of enzymic reaction has a pyranose ring structure.
