2-Deoxyribose-5-phosphate aldolase (DERA, EC 4.1.2.4) catalyzes the reversible aldol reaction between acetaldehyde and D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate to generate D-2-deoxyribose-5-phosphate. It is unique among the aldolases as it catalyzes the reversible asymmetric aldol addition reaction of two aldehydes. In order to expand the
