Which article are you evaluating?
Erythrose 4-phosphate

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article because it discusses erythrose 4-phosphate, an intermediate in the pentose phosphate pathway; the pentose phosphate pathway is a metabolic pathway that interests me.

This article matters because it touches on an intermediate on the pentose phosphate pathway, which is an important pathway for generating NADPH from NADP+.

My preliminary impression of this article was that the article was very short with little information about the role of erythrose 4-phosphate in the pentose phosphate pathway.

Evaluate the article
The lead section contains the necessary information about erythrose 4-phosphate. The tone is neutral. The article uses a reliable journal article as its source. The writing is clear and error-free. The images included are relevant; the included images are about the structure of erythrose 4-phosphate and a reaction scheme of one of the reactions erythrose 4-phosphate undergoes.

Overall, the quality of the information on the article is good, but there should be more information on the topic. This article is good to improve on. This article can be improved by adding more information (e.g. how erythrose 4-phosphate is formed in the pentose phosphate pathway).
