Leloirútvonalban
Leloirútvonalban, a Hungarian term, translates directly to "in the Leloir pathway." This refers to a biochemical pathway that is crucial for the metabolism of galactose in many organisms. The Leloir pathway describes the series of enzymatic reactions that convert galactose into glucose-6-phosphate, a molecule that can then enter glycolysis, the central pathway of glucose metabolism.
The pathway begins with the phosphorylation of galactose by the enzyme galactokinase, producing galactose-1-phosphate. The next
Disruptions in the Leloir pathway can lead to serious metabolic disorders, most notably classic galactosemia. In
