Non-catalytic role of glyceraldehydes-3-phosphate dehydrogenase
Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase or GAPDH is an important enzyme of the glycolytic pathway. It is an NADH-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the sixth step of the glycolytic pathway during which it converts the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P) to 1,3-diphosphoglycerate. However, a recent study shows that it has not only catalytic role …
