Scientific Background

Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase 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 is thought to be a tetramer of identical chains. Several highly homologous glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPD)-related sequences have been identified previously in human DNA by Southern blot analysis. Protein studies have identified only a single expressed locus for this major glycolytic enzyme, and this maps to chromosome 12p13. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) is a critical regulator of CICD, it mediates an elevation in glycolysis and enhanced autophagy that cooperate to protect cells from CICD.
