The directed movement of fructose into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. Fructose exists in a open chain form or as a ring compound. D-fructose is the sweetest of the sugars and is found free in a large number of fruits and honey. The directed movement of monosaccharides into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. Monosaccharides are the simplest carbohydrates; they are polyhydric alcohols containing either an aldehyde or a keto group and between three to ten or more carbon atoms. They form the constitutional repeating units of oligo- and polysaccharides. The directed movement of the hexose monosaccharide fructose into a cell or organelle. The directed movement of hexose into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. Hexoses are any aldoses with a chain of six carbon atoms in the molecule.
