Fructose


Fructose (Fischer projection)
Pure carbohydrates contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms, in a 1:2:1 molar ratio, giving the general formula CnH2nOn. However, many important carbohydrates deviate from this, such as deoxyribose.

Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate (F2,6BP) is a potent activator of phosphofructokinase (PFK-1) that is synthesised when F6P is phosphorylated by a second phosphofructokinase (PFK2).

Fructose simply diffuses into the villi, but both glucose and galactose are absorbed by active transport.
fatty acids and monoglycerides. These become resynthesized into fats as they enter the cells of the villus.

fructose
a simple carbohydrate (monosaccharide) that is a structural isomer of glucose and considered to be an atypical ketose.
Full article >>>

Glucose, fructose and galactose are isomers because they are different arrangements of the same number and kinds of atoms.
Disaccharides
Disaccharides are composed of 2 monosaccharides joined together by a condensation reaction.

For example, glucose and fructose have the same chemical formula, but different structure: glucose having an aldehyde (internal hydroxyl shown as: -OH) and fructose having a keto group (internal double-bond O, shown as: =O).
