UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: Q9W2M2 (Q9W2M2)
Gene Name:
Treh
Organism: Drosophila melanogaster (Fruit fly)
Function: Enzyme that cleaves trehalose to produce 2 glucose molecules that can be used by the glycolytic pathway (Probable). Glycolysis is essential in glial cells but not in neurons; neurons rely on the citric acid cycle for their energy needs, and on lactate and alanine secreted into the hemolymph by glial cells to fuel it (PubMed:26235423)
