Sulfoquinovose, also known as 6-sulfoquinovose and 6-deoxy-6-sulfo-D-glucopyranose, is a monosaccharide sugar that is found as a building block in the sulfolipid sulfoquinovosyl diacylglycerol (SQDG).{{cite journal|last1=Goddard-Borger|first1=ED|last2=Williams|first2=SJ|title=Sulfoquinovose in the biosphere: occurrence, metabolism and functions.|journal=The Biochemical Journal|date=20 February 2017|volume=474|issue=5|pages=827–849|doi=10.1042/BCJ20160508|pmid=28219973}} Sulfoquinovose is a sulfonic acid derivative of glucose, the sulfonic acid group is introduced into the sugar by the enzyme UDP-sulfoquinovose synthase (SQD1). Sulfoquinovose is degraded through a metabolic process termed sulfoglycolysis. The half-life for mutarotation of sulfoquinovose at pD 7.5 and 26C is 299 minutes.{{Cite journal|last1=Abayakoon|first1=Palika|last2=Lingford|first2=James P.|last3=Jin|first3=Yi|last4=Bengt|first4=Christopher|last5=Davies|first5=Gideon J.|last6=Yao|first6=Shenggen|last7=Goddard-Borger|first7=Ethan D.|last8=Williams|first8=Spencer J.|date=2018-04-16|title=Discovery and characterization of a sulfoquinovose mutarotase using kinetic analysis at equilibrium by exchange spectroscopy|journal=The Biochemical Journal|volume=475|issue=7|pages=1371–1383|doi=10.1042/BCJ20170947|issn=1470-8728|pmc=5902678|pmid=29535276}}
