			'''Fructose 1-phosphate''' is a [[phosphorylated]] derivative of [[fructose]], a simple [[sugar]] found in many foods. It plays a crucial role in the [[metabolism]] of fructose, particularly in the [[liver]].

	==~~Physiological Role~~==		== Structure ==
	Fructose 1-phosphate ~~serves as~~ a ~~substrate for aldolase B, an enzyme that splits it into~~ [[~~dihydroxyacetone phosphate~~]] ~~(DHAP) and~~ [[~~glyceraldehyde~~]]. ~~Both of these products can enter the glycolytic pathway, leading to the production of [[pyruvate]] and ultimately [[ATP]], [[NADH]], and other metabolic intermediates. The rapid metabolism~~ of fructose 1-phosphate ~~in the liver can lead to a depletion of ATP and an accumulation of lactic acid, contributing~~ to the ~~potential~~ for [[metabolic ~~syndrome]] and [[fatty liver disease]] when fructose is consumed in large amounts~~.		Fructose 1-phosphate is a [[monosaccharide]] [[phosphate]] ester. It consists of a fructose molecule with a phosphate group attached to the first carbon atom. This structure is important for its role in metabolic pathways.

	==~~Clinical Significance~~==		== Metabolic Pathway ==
	~~A deficiency~~ in ~~aldolase B~~, ~~which~~ is ~~required for~~ the ~~metabolism of fructose 1-phosphate, leads to~~ [[~~hereditary fructose intolerance~~]] ~~(HFI). Individuals with HFI cannot properly metabolize~~ fructose 1-phosphate~~, leading to its accumulation~~ in the liver~~. This accumulation can cause severe hypoglycemia, liver damage, and kidney failure. Avoidance of dietary fructose, sucrose, and sorbitol is the primary treatment for individuals with HFI~~.		Fructose 1-phosphate is primarily involved in the [[fructolysis]] pathway. When fructose is ingested, it is phosphorylated by the enzyme [[fructokinase]] to form fructose 1-phosphate. This reaction occurs mainly in the liver.

	==~~Metabolic Disorders~~==		=== Role in Fructolysis ===
	~~Excessive intake of fructose has been linked to various metabolic disorders, including obesity~~, ~~type 2 diabetes, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The rapid metabolism of fructose to~~ fructose 1-phosphate ~~in the liver~~ is ~~thought to play a role in these conditions~~ by ~~promoting de novo lipogenesis~~, ~~uric acid formation~~, and ~~insulin resistance~~.		In the liver, fructose 1-phosphate is further metabolized by the enzyme [[aldolase B]], which cleaves it into [[dihydroxyacetone phosphate]] (DHAP) and [[glyceraldehyde]]. These products can then enter the [[glycolysis]] pathway, contributing to the production of [[ATP]] and other metabolic intermediates.
