Sedoheptulose (CAS: 3019-74-7) is a ketoheptose, a monosaccharide with seven carbon atoms and a ketone functional group. It is one of the few heptoses found in nature. Sedoheptulose is a seven-carbon ketose sugar originally found in Sedum spectabile, a common perennial garden plant. Later it was shown to be widely distributed in the plants of the Crassulaceae family. The Crassulaceae, or orpine family, is a family of dicotyledons. They store water in their succulent leaves. They are found worldwide, but mostly occur in the northern hemisphere and southern Africa, typically in dry and/or cold areas where water may be scarce. The family includes about 1,400 species in 33 genera. As a result, this sugar is often found to be part of the human diet. This sugar, D-sedoheptulose, is a significant intermediary compound in the cyclic regeneration of D-ribulose. It also plays an important role as a transitory compound in the cyclic regeneration of D-ribulose for carbon dioxide fixation in plant photosynthesis. D-Mannoheptulose is a major non-structural carbohydrate in avocado. D-mannoheptulose is a specific inhibitor of D-glucose phosphorylation. D-Mannoheptulose can block insulin release and utilization of carbohydrate in rat[1][2][3]. D-Mannoheptulose is a major non-structural carbohydrate in avocado.
