FUNCTION: Transaldolase is important for the balance of metabolites in the pentose-phosphate pathway (By similarity).

CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Sedoheptulose 7-phosphate + D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate = D-erythrose 4-phosphate + D-fructose 6-phosphate.

PATHWAY: Carbohydrate degradation; pentose phosphate pathway; D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate and beta-D-fructose 6-phosphate from D-ribose 5-phosphate and D-xylulose 5-phosphate (non-oxidative stage): step 2/3.

SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm (Probable).

SIMILARITY: Belongs to the transaldolase family. Type 1 subfamily.
