Glycerol kinase Use and Manufacturing

In adipocytes, because there is no glycerol kinase, the glycerol produced by lipolysis cannot be used, and it can only be transported to the liver, kidney, intestine and other tissues for use through the blood circulation. Under the action of glycerokinase, it is converted into glycerol 3-phosphate, which is then dehydrogenated to produce dihydroxyacetone phosphate, which is then oxidized and decomposed to release energy through the glucose metabolism pathway. It can also be converted into glucose or sugar in the liver along the gluconeogenesis pathway. original. Glycerol is phosphorylated to 3-phosphoglycerol under the catalysis of glycerophosphate kinase.
