DL-Xylose ((±)-Xylos) is a sugar first derived from wood. DL-Xylose is classified as a monosaccharide of the aldopentose type.

D-(+)-Xylose (Wood sugar) is an aldopentose - a monosaccharide containing five carbon atoms and an aldehyde functional group. It has chemical formula C5H10O5 and is 40% as sweet as sucrose. Xylose is also found in mucopolysaccharides of connective tissue and sometimes in the urine. Xylose is the first sugar added to serine or threonine residues during proteoglycan type O-glycosylation. Therefore xylose is involved in the biosythetic pathways of most anionic polysaccharides such as heparan sulphate and chondroitin sulphate. In medicine, xylose is used to test for malabsorption by administering a xylose solution to the patient after fasting. If xylose is detected in the blood and/or urine within the next few hours, it has been absorbed by the intestines. Xylose is said to be one of eight sugars which are essential for human nutrition, the others being galactose, glucose, mannose, N-acetylglucosamine, N-acetylgalactosamine, fucose, and sialic acid. . Xylose in the urine is a biomarker for the consumption of apples and other fruits.

UDP-xylose disodium is a compound that can be isolated from Cryptococcus laurentii and is a sugar donor that can be used for the synthesis of glycoproteins, polysaccharides, various metabolites and oligosaccharides in plants, vertebrates and fungi.

Xylose-4-13C is the 13C-labeled form of Xylose. D-(+)-Xylose is a natural compound that, when catalyzed by xylose isomerase, converts to xylulose, a crucial step in the anaerobic fermentation of xylose.

Xylose-1-13C is a 13C-labeled form of Xylose. D-(+)-Xylose is a natural compound that, under the catalysis of xylose isomerase, is converted into xylulose, a crucial step in the anaerobic fermentation of xylose to ethanol.

Xylose-5-13C is a 13C-labeled form of xylose. D-(+)-(Xylose) is a natural compound that, when catalyzed by xylose isomerase, forms xylulose, a crucial step in the anaerobic ethanol fermentation of xylose.

Xylose-2-13C is a form of xylose labeled with carbon-13. D-(+)-xylose (Xylose) is a naturally occurring compound that, through the catalysis of xylose isomerase, is converted to xylulose, which is an essential step in the anaerobic ethanol fermentation of xylose.

D-Sorbitol (Sorbitol) is a polyhydric alcohol with about half the sweetness of sucrose, occurring naturally and also produced synthetically from glucose. Formerly used as a diuretic, it may still be used as a laxative and in irrigating solutions for certain surgical procedures. It is also utilized in various manufacturing processes, as a pharmaceutical aid, and in several research applications.

Xylitol (Ribitol) is a five-carbon sugar alcohol derived from XYLOSE by reduction of the carbonyl group. It is as sweet as sucrose and used as a noncariogenic sweetener.

Pro-xylane (Hydroxypropyl tetrahydropyrantriol) is a C-glycoside, a xylose derivative, that stimulates the production of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) and induces a higher deposition of proteins in basement membranes and dermal-epidermal junctions (DEJs). Pro-xylane is used to maintain skin elasticity and improve skin aging.

Succinamic acid acts as a weak inhibitor of human LL-xylose reductase (human LL-xylose reductase) with an IC50 of 1.45 mM. It is also utilized as a linker in the synthesis of CQ-16.

UX4O is an allosteric inhibitor of UDP-glucose dehydrogenase (UGDH). The human UGDH (hUGDH) is a hexamer that catalyzes the oxidation of UDP-glucose to UDP-glucuronic acid. It exists in an active (E) state and an inactive (EΩ) state, which requires binding with the allosteric inhibitor UDP-xylose (UDP-Xyl) to stabilize the inactive form. UX4O may also serve as a physiologically relevant inhibitor of bacterial allosteric UGDH that does not produce UDP-Xyl.
