ENZYME entry: EC 1.1.1.372

PURL: https://purl.expasy.org/enzyme/EC/1.1.1.372
Accepted Name
D/L-glyceraldehyde reductase
Reaction catalysed
  • glycerol + NADP(+) = L-glyceraldehyde + NADPH + H(+)
  • glycerol + NADP(+) = D-glyceraldehyde + NADPH + H(+)
Comment(s)
  • The enzyme takes part in a D-galacturonate degradation pathway in the fungi Aspergillus niger and Trichoderma reesei (Hypocrea jecorina).
  • It has equal activity with D- and L-glyceraldehyde, and can also reduce glyoxal and methylglyoxal.
  • The reaction is only observed in the direction of glyceraldehyde reduction.
