Mannose 1-phosphate is an endogenous metabolite. Mannose 1-phosphate can be used to synthesize GDP-Man by the enzyme GDP-mannose pyrophosphorylase[1].

ChEBI:D-mannose 1-phosphate is a mannose phosphate that is D-mannose carrying a phosphate group at position 1. It has a role as a fundamental metabolite and a human metabolite. It is functionally related to a D-mannopyranose.
