Pentose phosphate metabolism (WP134)

Homo sapiens

Pentose phosphate, phosphogluconate, or hexose monophsphate pathway oxidizes glucose-6-phosphate to fructose-6-phosphate and glyceraldehyde-3-P. NADP+ is the electron acceptor. The pathways yields NADPH as well as 5, 4, and 7 carbon intermediaries for synthesis of nucleotides. Proteins on this pathway have targeted assays available via the [https://assays.cancer.gov/available_assays?wp_id=WP134 CPTAC Assay Portal]
