Product name:Glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase
CAS:9075-65-4
Specification:1ku
Description:
Glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH) is an enzyme that catalyzes the reduction of dihydroxyacetone phosphate (aka glycerone phosphate, outdated) to sn-glycerol 3-phosphate.
Older terms for glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase include alpha glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (alphaGPDH) and glycerolphosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH). However, glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase is not the same as glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) whose substrate is an aldehyde not an alcohol.
