Protein
Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase GAPCP1, chloroplastic
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Function
Involved in plastidial glycolytic pathway and plays a specific role in glycolytic energy production in non-green plastids and chloroplasts. Essential for breakdown of starch to form sucrose for export to non-photosynthetic tissues, and to generate primary metabolites for anabolic pathways such as fatty acid and amino acid synthesis. Plays an important role in plant development by providing substrates for the phosphorylated pathway of serine biosynthesis in roots. Plays a crucial role in pollen development. Functionally redundant with GAPCP2.
Similarity
Belongs to the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase family.
