It has chemical formula C5H10O5. Two diastereomers are possible, D-ribulose (D-erythro-pentulose) and L-ribulose (L-erythro-pentulose). D-ribulose is an intermediate in the fungal pathway for D-arabitol production.

Then an isomerase and a kinase convert it to L-ribulose-5-phosphate. An epimerase converts L-ribulose-5-phosphate to D-xylulose-5-phosphate, an intermediate of the pentose phosphate pathway, which thereby flows through the pathways of central metabolism to satisfy the cell's need for precursor metabolites, reducing power, and metabolic energy.
