Solved: In glycerol metabolism, the oxidation of sn-glycerol 3-phosphate to give
Chapter 29, Problem 29.42(choose chapter or problem)
In glycerol metabolism, the oxidation of sn-glycerol 3-phosphate to give dihydroxyacetone phosphate is catalyzed by sn-glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, with NAD1 as cofactor. The reaction is stereospecific, occurring exclusively on the Re face of the nicotinamide ring. CONH2 H NAD+ N+ CONH2 H NADH H N Dihydroxyacetone Which hydrogen in the NADH product comes from sn-glycerol 3-phosphate?Does it have pro-R or pro-S stereochemistry?
