| Accepted name: |
tagatose-bisphosphate aldolase |
| Reaction: |
D-tagatose 1,6-bisphosphate = glycerone phosphate + D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate |
| Glossary: |
glycerone phosphate = dihydroxyacetone phosphate = 3-hydroxy-2-oxopropyl phosphate |
| Other name(s): |
D-tagatose-1,6-bisphosphate triosephosphate lyase |
| Systematic name: |
D-tagatose 1,6-bisphosphate D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate-lyase (glycerone-phosphate-forming) |
| Comments: |
Enzyme activity is stimulated by certain divalent cations. It is involved in the tagatose 6-phosphate pathway of lactose catabolism in bacteria. |
