Dihydroxyacetone phosphate is an important intermediate in lipid biosynthesis and glycolysis. It is a biochemical compound involved in multiple metabolic pathways such as the Calvin cycle and glycolysis in plants. Dihydroxyacetone phosphate was found to be associated with aldolase deficiency, an inborn error of metabolism.
