WHAT DOES RIBOSE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Ribose

Ribose is an organic compound with the formula C5H10O5; specifically, a pentose monosaccharide with linear form H−−4−H, which has all the hydroxyl groups on the same side in the Fischer projection. The term may refer to either of two enantiomers. The term usually indicates D-ribose, which occurs widely in nature and is discussed here. Its synthetic mirror image, L-ribose, is not found in nature. D-Ribose was first reported in 1891 by Emil Fischer. It is a C'-2 carbon epimer of the sugar D-arabinose and ribose itself is named as a transposition of the name of arabinose. Ribose forms part of the backbone of RNA. It is related to deoxyribose, which is found in DNA. Phosphorylated derivatives of ribose such as ATP and NADH play central roles in metabolism. cAMP and cGMP, formed from ATP and GTP, serve as secondary messengers in some signalling pathways.

Definition of ribose in the English dictionary

The definition of ribose in the dictionary is a pentose sugar that is an isomeric form of arabinose and that occurs in RNA and riboflavin. Formula: CH2OH3CHO.
