Description
Involved in the degradation of glucose via the Entner-Doudoroff pathway. Catalyzes the reversible cleavage of 2-keto-3-deoxy-6-phosphogluconate (KDPG) and 2-keto-3-deoxygluconate (KDG) forming pyruvate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate or glyceraldehyde, respectively. It is not able to use 2-keto-3-deoxy-6-phosphogalactonate (KDPGal) and 2-keto-3-deoxygalactonate (KDGal) as substrate.
Family
Belongs to the DapA family. KDPG aldolase subfamily.
Species
