Description

D-Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate is a monosaccharide that is an intermediate in the pentose phosphate pathway. It has been shown to inhibit HIV replication by competitive inhibition of the viral enzyme reverse transcriptase, which requires ATP as a cofactor and D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate as a substrate. D-Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate also inhibits bacterial growth by binding to dinucleotide phosphate, which is required for DNA synthesis. This compound has been used in x-ray diffraction data studies of proteins, including antibodies and enzymes. The α subunit of glycolytic enzymes can be successfully crystallized with sodium citrate and D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. This compound can also be used to prepare samples for protein analysis or model systems for transfer reactions.
