3-Phosphoglyceric acid (3-PGA) is an important organic acid molecule classified as a phosphorylated hydroxy acid. Its chemical formula is C₇H₇O₇P, and its molecular weight is 186.06 g/mol. 3-PGA is a key intermediate in the glycolysis pathway and the Calvin cycle. The analysis of 3-PGA is significant for studying cellular metabolism, energy transformation, and carbon fixation processes, and it has broad applications in medical and biological research. Since 3-PGA is a critical intermediate in glycolysis and gluconeogenesis, its metabolic abnormalities may be associated with various metabolic disorders, such as diabetes and metabolic syndrome. Monitoring 3-PGA levels helps to understand the metabolic dysregulation in these diseases. By analyzing 3-PGA and related metabolites, it is possible to assess cellular energy metabolism under different conditions, especially in response to hypoxia, exercise, or metabolic stress.
