DL-Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (GADP) is an intermediate in several metabolic pathways, including glycolysis and gluconeogenesis. In glycolysis, it can be derived from fructose 1,6-bisphosphate by fructose bisphosphate aldolase in a reaction that also produces dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP). Triose phosphate isomerase reversibly converts DHAP to GADP. GADP is processed to 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate by glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase and NAD+.
