Glycerine-3-phosphate dehydrogenases (GPD) are enzymes that catalyze the hydrogenation of dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) to glycerine-3-phosphate and the reverse conversion . They occur in all living things.
The mentioned reaction is necessary in eukaryotes for the hydrogen transport from the cytosol by means of the glycerol-3-phosphate shuttle into the mitochondria : In the cytosol, the hydrogen bound to NAD is released by the hydrogenating NAD + -dependent GPD ( EC 1.1.1.8 ) transferred to dihydroxyacetone phosphate and the glycerol-3-phosphate produced by this reduction diffuses through the mitochondrial membrane into the mitochondrion. There the dehydrating FAD -dependent GPD is located in the inner mitochondrial membrane ( GPD2 ; EC 1.1.5.3 ) and transfers the hydrogen from the G3P to the FAD . The dihydroxyacetone phosphate formed again by this oxidation of the G3P diffuses back into the cytosol. In the mitochondrial membrane, coenzyme Q transfers the hydrogen from FADH 2 back to NAD + , with reactive oxygen species (ROS) being produced as by-products .
In addition to its function in the respiratory chain , GPD2 appears to play a role in sperm metabolism where it is not located in mitochondria. The expression of GPD2 is stimulated by T3 via the thyroid hormone receptor and is tissue-dependent.
