d-Ribose as a Contributor to Glycated Haemoglobin [PDF]
EBioMedicine, 2017 Glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) is the most important marker of hyperglycaemia in diabetes mellitus. We show that d-ribose reacts with haemoglobin, thus yielding HbA1c.

Identification of the Protein Glycation Sites in Human Myoglobin as Rapidly Induced by d-Ribose [PDF]
Molecules, 2021 Protein glycation is an important protein post-translational modification and is one of the main pathogenesis of diabetic angiopathy. Other than glycated hemoglobin, the protein glycation of other globins such as myoglobin (Mb) is less studied.
