We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) is an [[enzyme]] in the [[pentose phosphate pathway]] (see image, also known as the HMP shunt pathway). G6PD converts [[glucose-6-phosphate]] into [[6-phosphoglucono-δ-lactone]] and is the rate-limiting enzyme of this [[metabolic pathway]] that supplies [[redox|reducing]] energy to cells by maintaining the level of the [[co-enzyme]] [[nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate]] (NADPH). The NADPH in turn maintains the supply of reduced [[glutathione]] in the cells that is used to mop up free radicals that cause [[oxidation|oxidative]] damage.
