Metabolite Identification
Common NamePrunasin
DescriptionPrunasin, also known as (R)-prunasin or prulaurasin, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as cyanogenic glycosides. These are glycosides in which the aglycone moiety contains a cyanide group. Prunasin exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. Prunasin has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as herbs and spices, papayas (Carica papaya), sour cherries (Prunus cerasus), black elderberries (Sambucus nigra), and passion fruits (Passiflora edulis). This could make prunasin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Prunasin is a primary metabolite. Primary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically essential metabolites. They are directly involved in an organism’s growth, development or reproduction. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Prunasin.

Enzymes

General function:
Involved in hydrolase activity, hydrolyzing O-glycosyl compounds
Specific function:
Glycosidase probably involved in the intestinal absorption and metabolism of dietary flavonoid glycosides. Able to hydrolyze a broad variety of glycosides including phytoestrogens, flavonols, flavones, flavanones and cyanogens. Possesses beta-glycosylceramidase activity and may be involved in a nonlysosomal catabolic pathway of glycosylceramide.
