Dihydroxyacetone phosphate (YMDB00322)

Identification
YMDB IDYMDB00322
NameDihydroxyacetone phosphate
SpeciesSaccharomyces cerevisiae
StrainBaker's yeast
DescriptionDihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) is an important intermediate in lipid biosynthesis and in glycolysis. Dihydroxyacetone phosphate is one of the two products of breakdown of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate, along with glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. It is rapidly and reversibly isomerised to glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. DHAP is also the product of the dehydrogenation of L-glycerol-3-phosphate, which is part of the entry of glycerol (sourced from triglycerides) into the glycolytic pathway. [Wikipedia]
