3-Chlorotyrosine a specific marker of myeloperoxidase-catalyzed oxidation is markedly elevated in low-density lipoprotein isolated from human atherosclerotic intima. In particular myeloperoxidase halogenates tyrosine residues in plasma proteins and generates 3-chlorotyrosine (CY).

In cells D-glucose 6-phosphate (G6P) is generated when glucose is phosphorylated by hexokinase or glucokinase or by the conversion of glucose-1-phosphate by phosphoglucomutase during glycogenolysis. G6P lies at the beginning of both glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathways. It also can be stored as glycogen when blood glucose levels are high.
