Entry
Name
D/L-glyceraldehyde reductase;
gld1 (gene name);
gaaD (gene name)
Class
Oxidoreductases;
Acting on the CH-OH group of donors;
With NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor
BRITE hierarchy
Sysname
glycerol:NADP+ oxidoreductase (D/L-glyceraldehyde-forming)
Reaction(IUBMB)
(1) glycerol + NADP+ = L-glyceraldehyde + NADPH + H+ [RN:
R10563 ];
(2) glycerol + NADP+ = D-glyceraldehyde + NADPH + H+ [RN:
R01041 ]
Reaction(KEGG)
Substrate

Comment
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.
