Metabolite Identification
Common Name3-Phosphoglyceric acid
Description3-Phosphoglyceric acid is a key intermediate in the glycolytic pathway and belongs to the class of carboxylic acids. Its chemical structure features a three-carbon backbone with a phosphate group attached to the second carbon and a carboxylic acid functional group on the first carbon. In cellular metabolism, 3-phosphoglyceric acid is produced from glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate through the action of the enzyme glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) and subsequently converted to 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate by phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK), a process that also generates NADH (PMID:40560172 ). It plays a role in various metabolic pathways, including carbohydrate metabolism, where its levels can indicate changes in metabolic states, as seen in studies linking its concentration to apolipoprotein C3 and blood cadmium levels (PMID:39579699 ). Additionally, 3-phosphoglyceric acid has been noted in metabolic profiling as a discriminatory metabolite in patient studies (PMID:39199286 ) and has been shown to influence enzyme activities related to starch metabolism (PMID:39093337 ). Its role in metabolic pathways illustrates its importance in both energy production and biosynthetic processes.
