Biochem/physiol Actions: | D-Lactaldehyde is an intermediate in the pyruvate metabolic pathway. Pyruvaldehyde is irreversibly produced from D-lactaldehyde via the enzyme glyoxylate reductase. L-lactaldehyde is an intermediate metabolite in the pyruvate metabolism pathway and is irreversibly produced from pyruvaldehyde via the enzyme aldehyde reductase, which is then irreversibly converted to propylene glycol via aldehyde reductase. |
