General description
Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) is an
ubiquitous glycolytic enzyme present in moderately high levels in almost all
tissues. As a ′house-keeping′ enzyme, it catalyzes the synthesis of
1,3-biphosphoglycerate, a "high energy" intermediate used for the
synthesis of ATP. Besides its cytoplasmic action in metabolism it is also
involved in the initial stages of apoptosis or oxidative stress response where
GAPDH is translocated to the nucleus. Such actions may reflect the role of GAPDH
in DNA repair or as one nuclear carrier for apoptotic molecules. GAPDH has also
been found to bind specifically to proteins implicated in the pathogenesis of a
variety of neurodegenerative disorders including the beta-amyloid precursor
protein and the huntingtin protein where decreased function of GAPDH is
associated with Alzheimer′s and Huntington′s disease fibroblasts. GAPDH has
also been identified as a potential target for nitric oxide (NO)-mediated
cellular toxicity. The complete and functional enzyme is a tetramer with each
of four identical subunits occupying the vertex of a tetrahedron. Binding
domains also include one principally interacting with NAD+ and another
interacting with glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (GAP).
