摘要
L-Xylulose is a rarely L-form pentose, and is able to inhibit the activities of glycosidases for the purpose of controlling human blood sugar levels. It is also useful as a pharmaceutical intermediate. Currently, L-xylulose can only be obtained by artificial synthesis, such as enzymatic catalysis targeting xylitol or L-arabinitol by oxidoreductases. In recent years, bio-production procedure of L-xylulose has been extensively studied. This review focuses on investigations of key enzymes for L-xylulose production, as well as the production processes, to provide theoretical references for relative research in this field.
