Uridine Diphosphate Glucose

MeSH code information

• Name
  Uridine Diphosphate Glucose
• Concept
  Registry number: V50K1D7P4Y

  Scope note: A key intermediate in carbohydrate metabolism. Serves as a precursor of glycogen, can be metabolized into UDPgalactose and UDPglucuronic acid which can then be incorporated into polysaccharides as galactose and glucuronic acid. Also serves as a precursor of sucrose lipopolysaccharides, and glycosphingolipids.

  CASN1 number: Uridine 5'-(trihydrogen diphosphate), P'-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl ester
