D-fucose yog ib qho monosaccharide, tshwj xeeb tshaj yog rau 6-carbon qab zib, uas belongs rau pawg ntawm cov suab thaj yooj yim hu ua hexoses.Nws yog ib qho isomer ntawm qabzib, sib txawv hauv kev teeb tsa ntawm ib pawg hydroxyl.
D-fucose yog ib txwm muaj nyob rau hauv ntau yam kab mob, nrog rau cov kab mob, fungi, nroj tsuag, thiab tsiaj txhu.Nws ua lub luag haujlwm tseem ceeb hauv ntau cov txheej txheem lom neeg, xws li kev taw qhia ntawm tes, cell adhesion, thiab glycoprotein synthesis.Nws yog ib feem ntawm glycolipids, glycoproteins, thiab proteoglycans, uas muaj kev koom tes hauv kev sib txuas lus ntawm tes thiab kev paub.
Hauv tib neeg, D-fucose tseem koom nrog hauv biosynthesis ntawm cov qauv glycan tseem ceeb, xws li Lewis antigens thiab cov pab pawg ntshav antigens, uas muaj feem cuam tshuam rau kev sib xyaw ntawm cov ntshav thiab kev tiv thaiv kab mob.
D-fucose tuaj yeem tau txais los ntawm ntau qhov chaw, suav nrog seaweed, nroj tsuag, thiab microbial fermentation.Nws yog siv nyob rau hauv kev tshawb fawb thiab biomedical daim ntaub ntawv, raws li zoo raws li nyob rau hauv zus tau tej cov pharmaceuticals thiab kho tebchaw.
