High impact information on Apiose

• Methylation analysis of the lithium degradation products from each PG-2 also indicated that these oligosaccharide alditols mainly consisted of terminal Rha, Araf, Fuc, Xyl, and Gal, 4-linked Rha, 3-linked Fuc, and 3'-linked Api [1].
• Two apiose-containing kaempferol triosides, together with nine known flavonoids were isolated from the leaves of Silphium perfoliatum L [2].
• Methylation analysis of these degradation products indicated that they contained terminal Rha, Araf, Fuc, Xyl, and Gal, 4-linked Rha, 3-linked Fuc, 3-linked Ara, and 3'-linked Api [3].
• The neutral sugar content of the successive fractions increased with increasing molecular weight, but each fraction also contained, in addition to Rha, Ara, and Gal, 2-Me-Fuc, 2-Me-Xyl, and Api [3].
• Two compounds have this structure physiologically: ribose in ribonucleotides and RNA, and apiose in the plant cell wall [4].

Biological context of Apiose

• The acetylation of apiitol in the determination of apiose [5].
• Fragment LMPH deprived of some terminal apiose residues as a result of partial acidic hydrolysis failed to have an effect on the inflammatory response.Thus, the data obtained reveal an enhancement by lemnan of the inflammatory response [6].
