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.
