D-Sedoheptulose 7-phosphate is a common precursor of heptaic acid (group III) and hygromycin B (group IV) heptasaccharide. D-heptadecane 7-phosphate can be converted to NDP-heptose by similar biosynthetic pathways in these compounds.

Sedoheptulose 7-phosphate can be converted to ADP-l-glycero-β-d-manno-heptose by SepB, SepL, and SepC, it involves in ADP-sugar in microbial natural product biosynthesis.SepB is an S-7-P isomerase, SepL involves in the biosynthesis of heptoses of the core region of?E. coli?LPS, and they catalyze a four-reaction relay converting S-7-P into ADP-d-glycero-β-d-manno-heptose .Septacidin and its analogs are potential anticancer and pain-relief agents.
