Application
D-Fucose (6-deoxy-D-galactose, rhodeose) may be used to study enzymes involved in its mutarotation to form L-fucose. It may be used as a reference compound in the analysis of carbohydrate metabolites. D-Fucose may be used to study biological processes such as adhesion.
Biochem/physiol Actions
D-Fucose is a nonmetabolizable analog of L-Arabinose.
