GLD1 catalyses the conversion of d-glyceralde-hyde and l- glyceraldehyde to glycerol, whereas GLD2 ... activitywith C5 or C6 sugars. We tested d-glyceraldehyde and l- glyceraldehyde individually and observed similaractivities; the activity with l- glyceraldehyde was onlyslightly lower. For d-glyceraldehyde ... enzymes were purified andcharacterized. We show that one enzyme catalyses the reduction of d-glyceraldehyde and l- glyceraldehyde toglycerol, whereas the other reduces DHA. This is the first report on...
