THE METABOLISM OF D-RIBOSE IN MAN

The metabolism of D-ribose in man.

Previously thought to be primarily a structural component of nucleic acids, the pentose, D-ribose, in the form of the ester, ribose 5-phosphate, has now been shown to be an important intermediate in the pentose phosphate pathway of glucose metabolism. The sequence of the reactions of this pathway has been summarized by Horecker and Mehler (1) and Wood (2), and surveys of its significance in var...

what miller wants is a theatre of heightened consciousness. he speaks of two passions in a man, the passion to "feel" and the passion "know". he belives that we can have more of the latter. he says: drama is akin to the other inventions of man in that it ought to help us know more and not merely to spend our feelings. the writing of the crucible shows us that he is trying to give more heightene...
