dihydroxyacetone phosphate

Dihydroxyacetone phosphate is an important intermediate in lipid biosynthesis and glycolysis, involved in various metabolic pathways, including the Calvin cycle and glycolysis in plants. It is also associated with the lack of transaldolase, a congenital metabolic error.

Dihydroxyacetone phosphate hemimagnesium salt hydrate is also known as dihydroxyacetone phosphate or 3-hydroxy-2-oxopropyl phosphate. Dihydroxyacetone phosphate hemimagnesium salt hydrate is found in all organisms from bacteria to humans. In humans, Dihydroxyacetone phosphate hemimagnesium salt hydrate is involved in many enzymatic reactions. Dihydroxyacetone phosphate hemimagnesium salt hydrate has been studied for the treatment of lymphoma, large cell lymphoma, and diffuse lymphoma.

sn-Glycerol 3-phosphate, produced by the reduction of dihydroxyacetone phosphate by NADH formed during glycolysis of the cytoplasmic glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase pathway.
