Description
Glycerophosphate is an organophosphate derived from the reaction catalysed by glycerol kinase(or ATP:glycerol 3-phosphotransferase) where ATP + glycerol <=> ADP + sn-glycerol 3-phosphate. It is a component of glycerophospholipids and [dehydrogenase] oxidizes glycerophosphate to dihydroxyacetone phosphate.
