Question- Glycerol obtained from the breakdown of fat is metabolized by conversion to dihydroxyacetone phosphate, a glycolytic intermediate, in two enzymatically-catalyzed reactions. Propose a reasonable reaction sequence for this glycerol metabolism.
Compare the structures of glycerol (1,2,3-propanetriol) and dihydroxyacetone phosphate to determine the two chemical changes that must occur, and then use what you have learned about similar chemical changes and their enzymes to propose a reasonable reaction sequence.
Note that your proposed reactions do not have to be the actual reactions that occur in vivo; they just need to be reasonable
As much detail as probable is really appreciated
