Application

Application Comment Organism
analysis coupling of a transketolase reaction that converts D-fructose 6-phosphate to D-erythrose 4-phosphate, which can then be converted to 4-phosphate D-erythronate using erythrose-4-phosphate dehydrogenase, a reaction that reduces NAD+ to NADH and can be easily followed spectrophotometrically Leishmania mexicana
