Description
Product Characteristics:
Synonyms: Dro-gapdh, Fruit Fly GAPDH, G3P1_DROME, Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase 1, Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase I, GAPDH I.
Target Information: The product of this gene catalyzes an important energy-yielding step in carbohydrate metabolism, the reversible oxidative phosphorylation of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate in the presence of inorganic phosphate and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD). The enzyme exists as a tetramer of identical chains. Many pseudogenes similar to this locus are present in the human genome. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]
