What it does, reaction by reaction

1 reactions

Fructose Metabolism (Fructolysis) Carbohydrate Metabolism · Cytosol

step 3 Irreversible/directional

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.
