methylglyoxal catabolic process to D-lactate via S-lactoyl-glutathione
methylglyoxal catabolic process to d-lactate via s-lactoyl-glutathione
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.
