Comments
Comment typeDescription
Catalytic Activitysn-glycerol 3-phosphate + a quinone = glycerone phosphate + a quinol.
CofactorName=FAD; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:57692;
CofactorName=FMN; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:58210;
FunctionConversion of glycerol 3-phosphate to dihydroxyacetone. Uses fumarate or nitrate as electron acceptor.
PathwayPolyol metabolism; glycerol degradation via glycerol kinase pathway; glycerone phosphate from sn-glycerol 3-phosphate (anaerobic route): step 1/1.
SimilarityBelongs to the FAD-dependent glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationCell inner membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Note=Loosely bound to the cytoplasmic membrane often occurring in vesicles associated with fumarate reductase.
SubunitComposed of a catalytic GlpA/B dimer and of membrane bound GlpC.
