| 21. | A third enzyme, triokinase, is therefore required to phosphorylate glyceraldehyde, producing glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate.
|
| 22. | A typical rearrangement reaction is that between the aldose glyceraldehyde and the ketose dihydroxyacetone in a chemical equilibrium.
|
| 23. | The concept of Fischer, who had used glyceraldehyde as the prototype and assigned randomly its absolute configuration.
|
| 24. | Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase ( GAPDH ) is an important enzyme used in reaction 6 of glycolysis.
|
| 25. | The D- in the name D-ribose refers to the stereochemistry of the D-glyceraldehyde.
|
| 26. | Rather, it indicates the compound's stereochemistry relative to that of the dextrorotatory or levorotatory enantiomer of glyceraldehyde.
|
| 27. | The GAIT complex consists of the proteins NS1-associated protein-1, and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase.
|
| 28. | The evolved aldolase is capable of accepting both D-and L-glyceraldehyde in their non-phosphorylated form.
|
| 29. | The word comes from combining glycerol and aldehyde, as glyceraldehyde is glycerol with one hydroxymethyl group oxidized to an aldehyde.
|
| 30. | Triose phosphate catabolism switches over to MGS when phosphate concentrations are too low for glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase activity.
