Biochem/physiol Actions

Metabolite in glycerolipid metabolism and glycerophospholipid metabolism. Ugp-dependent transport system for G3P in E. coli.

Glycerol 3-phosphate (G3P) is an important intermediate of carbohydrate and lipid metabolic pathways. It is produced from glycerol by glycerol kinase or from dihydroxyacetone phosphate by glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase. G3P may enter the G3P shuttle to generate NAD⁺, or may be converted to glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate and enter glycolysis or the lipid biosynthesis pathway.
