Planteome: Term Details for "glycerophosphate shuttle" (GO:0006127)

Accession: GO:0006127
Name: glycerophosphate shuttle
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: None
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: The process of transferring reducing equivalents from the cytosol into the mitochondria; NADH is used to synthesise glycerol 3-phosphate in the cytosol; this compound is then transported into the mitochondria where it is converted to dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) using FAD; DHAP then returns to the cytosol to complete the cycle.
