sn-Glycerol 3-phosphate lithium

• CAT Number: I045598
• Molecular Formula: C3H9O6P.xLi
• Purity: ≥95%

sn-Glycerol 3-phosphate lithium (Cat No.: I045598) is the lithium salt form of sn-glycerol-3-phosphate, a key metabolic intermediate linking carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. It serves as a precursor for glycerophospholipid and triglyceride biosynthesis and participates in redox balance through the glycerol phosphate shuttle, transferring reducing equivalents into mitochondria. In research, it is widely used to study lipid metabolism, mitochondrial function, and energy regulation. The lithium salt improves stability and solubility, making it suitable for biochemical assays, enzymology, and metabolic pathway investigations.
