id: GO:0019243
name: methylglyoxal catabolic process to D-lactate
namespace: biological_process
type: go
obsolete: False
Description: The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of methylglyoxal, CH3-CO-CHO, into D-lactate via the intermediate S-lactoyl-glutathione. Glutathione is used in the first step of the pathway and then regenerated in the second step.
