Iduronic1
- for example, many wastes in the human body are excreted in the urine as their glucuronate salts, and iduronic acid is a component of some structural complexes such as proteoglycans. (wikipedia.org)
Amino acid2

- One manifestation of negative selection in the globins is that minimal 3-base type amino acid replacements occur less frequently than would be expected if base replacements had occurred and were accepted at random. (pharmaceuticalintelligence.com)
Identical4
- It has identical antioxidant properties to L-ascorbic acid yet has far less vitamin C activity (although not quite zero). (chemtradeasia.com)
- Vitamin C structure is similar to that of glucose, but not identical. (drgoodyear.com)
- It wasn't until 1933 that the scientist Charles Glen King isolated vitamin C and found it to be identical to Albert Szent-Györgyi's 'hexuronic acid' [4] . (drgoodyear.com)
- Neither aldohexuronic acid supported growth of C. glutamicum as sole or combined carbon source, although its genome encodes a putative uronate isomerase sharing 28% identical amino acids with UxaC from Escherichia coli . (springeropen.com)
Sugar4
- Uronic acids (/ʊˈrɒnɪk/) or alduronic acids are a class of sugar acids with both carbonyl and carboxylic acid functional groups. (wikipedia.org)
- Usually the sugar is an aldose, but fructuronic acid also occurs. (wikipedia.org)
- Among the sugar constituents of plant cell wall are the hexuronic acids D-galacturonate and D-glucuronate found in pectin. (springeropen.com)
- McCollum (1922) said that for growth and "prolonged well-being" in rats, the following was necessary: "A single purified protein, a source of the sugar glucose, nine mineral elements and two uncharacterized dietary factors" (McCollum, E. V. (earthwormexpress.com)
