Gut Microbial Utilization of the Alternative Sweetener, D-Allulose, via AlsE
2024-11-08
Abstract excerpt
D-allulose, a rare sugar with emerging potential as a low-calorie sweetener, has garnered attention as an alternative to other commercially available alternative sweeteners, such as sugar alcohols, which often cause severe gastrointestinal discomfort. D-allulose-6-phosphate 3-epimerase (AlsE) is a prokaryotic enzyme that converts D-allulose-6-phosphate into D-fructose-6-phopshate, enabling its use as a carbon sour...
