| physiological function | decaprenylphosphoryl-D-arabinofuranose is synthesized by the following sequence of events: 5-phosphoribose 1-diphosphate is transferred to a decaprenyl-phosphate molecule to form decaprenylphosphoryl-beta-D-5-phosphoribose. Decaprenylphosphoryl-beta-D-5-phosphoribose is dephosphorylated to form decaprenylphosphoryl-beta-D-ribose. The hydroxyl group at the 2 position of the ribose is oxidized and is likely to form decaprenylphosphoryl-2-keto-beta-D-erythro-pentofuranose. Decaprenylphosphoryl-2-keto-beta-D-erythro-pentofuranose is reduced to form decaprenylphosphoryl-beta-D-arabinofuranose. Thus, the epimerization of the ribosyl to an arabinosyl residue occurs at the lipid-linked level | Mycobacterium tuberculosis |
