Dihydroxyacetone phosphate lies in the glycolysis metabolic pathway, and is one of the two products of breakdown of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate, along with glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. It is rapidly and reversibly isomerised to glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate.ihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP, also glycerone phosphate in older texts) is a biochemical compound involved in many metabolic pathways, including the Calvin cycle in plants and glycolysis.
The human esophagus is about 10 inches (25 centimeters) long. The esophagus of fish is short, while that of giraffes is extremely long.. Digestion involves the breakdown of ingested food and the absorption of the resulting molecules into the body.
The esophagus is a muscular tube connecting the throat (pharynx) with the stomach. The esophagus is about 8 inches long, and is lined by moist pink tissue called mucosa.The esophagus runs behind the windpipe (trachea) and heart, and in front of the spine. Just before entering the stomach, the esophagus passes through the diaphragm. Esophageal ulcer: An erosion in an area of the lining of the esophagus. 2  This is often caused by chronic reflux. 3  Esophageal stricture: A narrowing of the esophagus. 4  Chronic irritation from reflux is the usual cause of esophageal strictures.
