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