Dihydroxyacetone phosphate hemimagnesium salt hydrate (DHAP Mg) is a magnesium salt of DHAP. DHAP may be used as the substrate to characterize enzymes such as fructose bisphosphate aldolase and triose phosphate isomerase.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) is a metabolic intermediate involved in many pathways, including glycolysis, gluconeogenesis, glycerol metabolism, phosphatidic acid synthesis, fat metabolism, and the Calvin cycle.

Stop for NadA! A [4Fe-4S] enzyme, NadA, catalyzes the formation of quinolinic acid in de novo nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) biosynthesis. A structural analogue of an intermediate, 4,5-dithiohydroxyphthalic acid (DTHPA), has an in vivo NAD biosynthesis inhibiting activity in E. coli. The

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are attractive materials for the immobilization of enzymes due to several advantages such as high enzyme loading, absence of internal diffusion limitations, and Brownian motion in solution, compared to the conventional immobilization onto porous macroscopic supports. The

An efficient gram scale synthesis of 3-fluoro-1-hydroxyacetone phosphate (FHAP) has been developed. As a close analog to dihydroxyacetone phosphate, FHAP was used as a novel donor substrate for rabbit muscle aldolase catalyzed reactions. The different binding affinities of the gem-diol
Aldol addition reactions of dihydroxyacetone (DHA) to N-Cbz-amino aldehydes catalyzed by L-rhamnulose-1-phosphate aldolase (RhuA) in the presence of borate buffer are reported. High yields of aldol adduct (e.g. 70-90%) were achieved with excellent (>98 : 2 syn/anti) stereoselectivity for most S or
