Term Name: L-arabitol catabolic process to D-xylulose 5-phosphate
Synonyms: L-arabitol and xylitol degradation, L-arabitol breakdown to xylulose 5-phosphate, L-arabitol degradation to xylulose 5-phosphate, L-arabitol utilization
Definition: The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of L-arabitol to form D-xylulose 5-phosphate. L-arabitol is converted into L-xylulose, which is then phosphorylated to L-xylulose-5-phosphate. This is converted to D-xylulose-5-phosphate via the intermediate L-ribulose-5-phosphate.
