One step in the gluconeogenesis pathway for the biosynthesis of glucose is the partial reduction of 3-phosphoglycerate to give glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. The process occurs by phosphorylation with ATP to give 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate, reaction with a thiol group on the enzyme to give an enzyme-bound thioester, and reduction with NADH. -OPO3²- Enz-SH H-C-OH ATP CH₂OPO3²- 3-phosphoglycerate O 0-0--0 O ADP CH₂CH3 substitute for 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate C H-C-OH CH₂OPO3²- 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate O=C CH3-SH substitute for Enz-SH H H-C-OH | CH₂OPO3²- PO4³- O.
