 ===Function===
-GlpD functions in the intracellular membrane of E. coli and in the inner-mitochondrial membrane of eukaryotes. In E. Coli, GlpD catalyzes and reduces the reaction of dihydroxyacetone phosphate to glycerol 3-phosphate in the [http://www.pnas.org/content/105/9/3280/F1.large.jpg glycerol metabolism pathway]. The binding of the substrate analogues (glyceraldehydes 3-phosphate, glyceric acid 2-phosphate and phosphoenolpyruvate, dihydroxyacetone phosphate)or UQ substrate analogues (2-n-heptyl-4-hydroxyquinoline N-oxide and menadione). The conformational change of the structure and resiudes of GlpD catalyzes many different metabolic reactions.

 ====Phosphoplipid Biosynthesis====
-GlpD reduces dihydroxyacetone phosphate to glycerol 3-phosphate. Then the glycerol 3-phosphate is catalyzed by acyl transferase to 1-acylglyverol-3-phosphate, and then another acyl transferase catalyzes that to a phosphatidic acid. head groups are added to the phosphatidic acid to synthesize phospholipids.
