(redirected from 1,6-diphosphofructose aldolase)

fruc·tose-bis·phos·phate al·dol·ase

(fruk'tōs bis-fos'fāt al'dol-ās),
Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate triophosphate-lyase; an enzyme reversibly cleaving fructose 1,6-bisphosphate to dihydroxyacetone phosphate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate; also acts on certain ketose 1-phosphates; deficient in individuals with hereditary fructose intolerance (aldolase B isozyme); a deficiency of aldolase A leads to erythrocyte aldolase deficiency with nonspherocytic hemolytic anemia. Compare: hereditary fructose intolerance.
