Application

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.
