EC 1.2.1.59

Accepted name: glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (NAD(P)+) (phosphorylating)

Reaction: D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate + phosphate + NAD(P)+ = 3-phospho-D-glyceroyl phosphate + NAD(P)H + H+

Other name(s): triosephosphate dehydrogenase (NAD(P)); glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (NAD(P)) (phosphorylating)

Systematic name: D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate:NAD(P)+ oxidoreductase (phosphorylating)

Comments: NAD+ and NADP+ can be used as cofactors with similar efficiency, unlike EC 1.2.1.12 glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (phosphorylating) and EC 1.2.1.13 glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (NADP+) (phosphorylating), which are NAD+- and NADP+-dependent, respectively.
