is GADPH used by both eukaryotes and prokaryotes?

Probably it is, because gycolysis is performed by both euk. and prok. --Christopherlin 15:22, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Additional source

This page http://www.biochem.ucl.ac.uk/bsm/enzymes/ec1/ec02/ec01/ec0012/ explains the EC classification of the enzyme. --Christopherlin 15:22, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] water

"Finally, a molecule of inorganic phosphate attacks the thioester and forms a tetrahedral intermediate, which then collapses to release 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate, a molecule of water, and the thiol group of the enzyme's cysteine residue." where does the water come from?

[edit] Molecular Weight

What's its molecular weight and what is its quaternary structure (monomer, dimer, tetramer... ?)

[edit] writing level

is it just me or is this article waaayyyy too technical for an encyclopedia entry? i feel like it should be written more layman-ish and provide references for the extra details. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 141.213.67.125 (talk) 18:24, 22 February 2007 (UTC).
