GDP-L-fucose is a nucleotide sugar that is a key substrate for the biosynthesis of fucose oligosaccharides, providing the fucose moiety for the oligosaccharides.The formation of GDP-L-fucose occurs through two pathways, the major ab initio metabolic pathway and the minor remedial metabolic pathway. GDP-L-fucose is associated with diabetes in rats[1][2].
