D-Lactaldehyde is an intermediate in the pyruvate metabolic pathway. Pyruvaldehyde is irreversibly produced from D-lactaldehyde via the enzyme glyoxylate reductase. L-lactaldehyde is an intermediate metabolite in the pyruvate metabolism pathway and is irreversibly produced from pyruvaldehyde via the enzyme aldehyde reductase, which is then irreversibly converted to propylene glycol via aldehyde reductase.

The pure stereoisomers of 1,2-propanediol (1,2-PDO) could be used as starting materials to synthesize high value-added specialty chemicals and chiral pharmaceutical products. As the stereoisomers of 1,2-PDO cannot be obtained by traditional chemical synthesis processes, biotechnological processes have gained increasing

High methylglyoxal content disrupts cell physiology, but mammals have scavengers to prevent glycolytic and mitochondrial dysfunctions. In yeast, methylglyoxal accumulation triggers methylglyoxal-oxidizing alcohol dehydrogenase (Adh1) activity. While methylglyoxal reductases and glyoxalases have been well studied in prokaryotes and eukaryotes, experimental

A biosynthetic pathway is proposed for creating 6-deoxy-5-ketofructose-1-phosphate (DKFP), a precursor sugar for aromatic amino acid biosynthesis in Methanocaldococcus jannaschii. First, two possible routes were investigated to determine if a modified, established biosynthetic pathway could be responsible for generating 6-deoxyhexoses
