name: ribitol catabolic process to xylulose 5-phosphate
namespace: biological_process
type: go
obsolete: False
Description: The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of ribitol to form xylulose 5-phosphate. Ribitol is initially converted to D-ribulose, which is phosphorylated to form ribulose 5-phosphate, which is then converted into xylulose 5-phosphate.
