sn-Glycerol 3-phosphate [a] [b] is the organic ion with the formula HOCH 2 CH(OH)CH 2 OPO 3 2-. It is one of two stereoisomers of the ester of dibasic phosphoric acid (HOPO 3 2- ) and glycerol . It is a component of bacterial and eukaryotic glycerophospholipids . [ 2 ]
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are sn-glycerol 3-phosphate and D-glucose, whereas its two products are glycerol and D-glucose 6-phosphate. This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases , specifically those transferring phosphorus-containing groups ( phosphotransferases ) with an alcohol group as acceptor.
In enzymology, a glycerol-3-phosphate cytidylyltransferase (EC 2.7.7.39) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction. CTP + sn-glycerol 3-phosphate diphosphate + CDP-glycerol. Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are CTP and sn-glycerol 3-phosphate, whereas its two products are diphosphate and CDP-glycerol.
In enzymology, a CDP-diacylglycerol—glycerol-3-phosphate 3-phosphatidyltransferase (EC 2.7.8.5) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction CDP-diacylglycerol + sn-glycerol 3-phosphate ⇌ {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } CMP + 3(3-sn-phosphatidyl)-sn-glycerol 1-phosphate

The 3 substrates of this enzyme are ATP, H 2 O, and glycerol-3-phosphate, whereas its 3 products are ADP, phosphate, and glycerol-3-phosphate. This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases , specifically those acting on acid anhydrides to catalyse transmembrane movement of substances.
In enzymology, a glycerol-3-phosphate oxidase (EC 1.1.3.21) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction. sn-glycerol 3-phosphate + O 2 glycerone phosphate + H 2 O 2. Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are sn-glycerol 3-phosphate and O 2, whereas its two products are dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) and H 2 O 2.
The majority of triglycerides are synthesised from glycerol 3-phosphate (G3P) via the addition of three fatty acyl-CoA substrates, which are made from fatty acids. The first of these additions is catalysed by glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferases (GPATs: EC 2.3.1.15), including GPAT4, yielding lysophosphatidic acid . [ 7 ]
