Triokinase (glyceraldehyde kinase)
Cofactors used
What it does, reaction by reaction
Fructose Metabolism (Fructolysis) Carbohydrate Metabolism · Cytosol
Glyceraldehyde + ATP → glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate + ADP
Converts Glyceraldehyde ATP into Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate ADP
› Notes
Triokinase (glyceraldehyde kinase) requires ATP and Mg2+, phosphorylating glyceraldehyde. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate can then enter glycolysis, gluconeogenesis, glycerol-3-phosphate synthesis, or lipogenesis.
Showing all 1 reactions.
