Description
Rhamnose is a naturally-occurring deoxy sugar.It can be classified either as a methyl-pentose or a 6-deoxy-hexose.Rhamnose occurs in nature in its L-form as L-rhamnose(6-deoxy-L-mannose).This is unusual since most of the naturally-occurring sugars are in D-form.Exceptions are the methyl pentoses L-fucose and L-rhamnose and the pentose L-arabinose.
L-Rhamnose can be isolated from Buckthorn(Rhamnus)and poison sumac.It is also found as a glycoside in a variety of other plants.Rhamnose is a component of the outer cell membrane of acid-fast bacteria in the Mycobacterium genus,which includes the organsism that causes tuberculosis.
