GO TERM SUMMARY
|
| Name: |
methylglyoxal catabolic process to D-lactate |
| Acc: |
GO:0019243 |
| Aspect: |
Biological Process |
| Desc: |
The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of methylglyoxal, CH3-CO-CHO, into D-lactate via the intermediate S-lactoyl-glutathione. Glutathione is used in the first step of the pathway and then regenerated in the second step. |
Synonyms:
- methylglyoxal catabolic process to D-lactate via S-lactoyl-glutathione
- methylglyoxal degradation to D-lactate
- D-lactate biosynthesis from methylglyoxal
- D-lactate biosynthetic process from methylglyoxal
- methylglyoxal breakdown to D-lactate
- methylglyoxal catabolism to D-lactate via S-lactoyl-glutathione
- glyoxalase system
- methylglyoxal detoxification
