facets of enzyme activity: D‐Fructose‐6‐phosphate aldolase (FSA) catalyzes the self‐aldolreaction of glycolaldehyde (GA) and its cross‐aldol addition to other aldehydes. As the affinity of GA for FSA as a donor is higher than that as an acceptor, cross‐aldolreactions are possible with good to poor aldehyde acceptors if the concentration of GA in the reaction is kept low.
