2-Keto-D-glucose is a substrate molecule that is used in the study of plant physiology, enzyme kinetics, and metabolic regulation. It has been shown to be an important factor in redox potential and the activation of detoxification enzymes. 2-Keto-D-glucose has also been found to be an important factor in energy metabolism, as it can be converted into pyruvate and acetyl CoA. 2-Keto-D-glucose is a common substrate molecule for many enzymes, including glycolytic enzymes, hexokinase, alcohol dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase, and phosphofructokinase. 2-Keto-D-glucose has also been found to play a role in human blood serum biochemistry by acting as a substrate for erythrocyte D glucose transporter protein and glycerol kinase.
