Triose Phosphate Isomerase (TIM)

This is a placeholder text to help you get started in placing a Jmol applet on your page. At any time, click "Show Preview" at the bottom of this page to see how it goes.

Triose phosphate isomerase (TIM) is a crucial enzyme in the glycolytic pathway. TIM reversibly converts the aldose Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (GASP) to the ketose Dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP). The interconversion proceeds by an enediol intermediate.
