That sounds kinda weird to me. He called it alpha-something, I can't remember.

alpha-glycerol phosphate, or glycerol-3 phosphate
glucose can be used to create glycerol 3 phosphate, but so can glycerol...
anotehr strange thing, is that the body can produce something called glucose from a number of different sources for metabolic requirements
IF you are going with taubes on that story, theres this used bridge you might like to buy.
