AB OBJECTIVESAfter  studying  this  chapter,  you  should  be  able  to:Describe  the  pentose  phosphate  pathway  and  its  roles  as  a  source  of  NADPH  and  of  ribose  for  nucleotide  synthesis.Describe  the  uronic  acid  pathway  and  its  importance  for  synthesis  of  glucuronic  acid  for  conjugation  reactions  and  (in  animals  for  which  it  is  not  a  vitamin)  vitamin  C.Describe  and  explain  the  consequences  of  large  intakes  of  fructose.Describe  the  synthesis  and  physiological  importance  of  galactose.Explain  the  consequences  of  genetic  defects  of  glucose-6-phosphate  dehydrogenase  (favism),  the  uronic  acid  pathway  (essential  pentosuria),  and  fructose  and  galactose  metabolism.
