Introduction and General Structure
Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase, or G-3-P dehydrogenase, is an enzyme that plays a significant role in metabolism. It catalyzes a step in glycolysis in which glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate is converted to 3-phospho-D-glyceroyl phosphate. G-3-P dehydrogenase is a tetramer protein made up of four subunits. The of G-3-P dehydrogenase consists of alpha helices which are displayed in purple and beta sheets which are displayed in green.
Hydrogen Bonds
The of the backbone is displayed in orange. There are no disulfide bonds present in this enzyme.
