Published: November 2023

Fructosamine has long been considered as a key intermediate of the Maillard reaction, which to a large extent is responsible for specific aroma, taste, and color formation in thermally processed or dehydrated foods. Since the 1980s, however, as a product of the Amadori rearrangement reaction between glucose and biologically significant amines such as proteins, fructosamine has experienced a boom in biomedical research, mainly due to its relevance to pathologies in diabetes and aging. In this chapter, we assess the scope of the knowledge on and applications of fructosamine-related molecules in chemistry, food, and health sciences, as reflected mostly in publications within the past decade. Methods of fructosamine synthesis and analysis, its chemical, and biological properties, and degradation reactions, together with fructosamine-modifying and -recognizing proteins are surveyed.

1-Amino-1-deoxy-d-fructose (fructosamine, FN) derivatives are omnipresent in all living organisms, as a result of non-enzymatic condensation and Amadori rearrangement reactions between free glucose and biogenic amines such as amino acids, polypeptides, or aminophospholipids. Over decades, steady interest in fructosamine was largely sustained by its role as a key intermediate structure in the Maillard reaction that is responsible for the organoleptic and nutritional value of thermally processed foods, and for pathophysiological effects of hyperglycemia in diabetes. New trends in fructosamine research include the discovery and engineering of FN-processing enzymes, development of advanced tools for hyperglycemia monitoring, and evaluation of the therapeutic potential of both fructosamines and FN-recognizing proteins.

The site-specific induction of DNA damage by 1-amino-1-deoxy-D-fructose (D-isoglucosamine) was investigated. When 32P-end-labeled DNA restriction fragments of known sequence were reacted with D-isoglucosamine in the presence of Cu2+, and the DNA products were analyzed on high-resolution denaturing polyacrylamide gels after treatment with aqueous piperidine (1 M) at 90 degrees C for 30 min, the DNA strands were cleaved at pyrimidine residues at a statistically significant frequency, and 80.5% of the extensively damaged sites were induced at pyrimidine residues in dinucleotide sequences of pyrimidine-purine (5'----3').
