Functional category : Glycerol metabolism

Name : Glycerol metabolism
Organism : Yarrowia lipolytica
Description : Only two enzymes are ascribed to this category. The glycosomal Glycerol kinase (GK) of trypanosomatids and the glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPD1) in yeasts. During anaerobiosis Saccharomyces cerevisiae strongly increases glycerol production by GPD1 to provide for non-respiratory oxidation of NADH to NAD(+).
