Glucose 1-dehydrogenase

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In enzymology, a glucose 1-dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.47) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

beta-D-glucose + NAD(P)+ \rightleftharpoons D-glucono-1,5-lactone + NAD(P)H + H+

The 3 substrates of this enzyme are beta-D-glucose, NAD+, and NADP+, whereas its 4 products are D-glucono-1,5-lactone, NADH, NADPH, and H+.

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is beta-D-glucose:NAD(P)+ 1-oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include D-glucose dehydrogenase (NAD(P)+), and hexose phosphate dehydrogenase. This enzyme participates in pentose phosphate pathway.
