| 1. | Unlike glycolysis, in fructolysis the triose glyceraldehyde lacks a phosphate group.
|
| 2. | The structure of triose phosphate isomerase contributes to its function.
|
| 3. | Glyceraldehyde is then phosphorylated by triose kinase to glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate.
|
| 4. | Methylglyoxal synthase provides an alternative catabolic pathway for triose phosphates created in glycolysis.
|
| 5. | For example, carbohydrates are transported across the inner envelope membrane by a triose phosphate translocator.
|
| 6. | Photosynthesis produces initially 3-phosphoglyceraldehyde, a three carbon atom containing sugar ( a triose ).
|
| 7. | Both the ATP and NADPH are used in the Calvin cycle to fix carbon dioxide into triose sugars.
|
| 8. | A "'triose "'is a monosaccharide, or simple sugar, containing three carbon atoms.
|
| 9. | This product is also referred to as 3-phosphoglyceraldehyde ( PGAL ) or, more generically, as triose phosphate.
|
| 10. | Triose phosphate catabolism switches over to MGS when phosphate concentrations are too low for glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase activity.
