Glycerol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase (NAD(P)+)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In enzymology, a glycerol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase [NAD(P)+] (EC 1.1.1.261) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- sn-glycerol-1-phosphate + NAD(P)+ glycerone phosphate + NAD(P)H + H+
The 3 substrates of this enzyme are sn-glycerol-1-phosphate, NAD+, and NADP+, whereas its 4 products are glycerone phosphate, 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 sn-glycerol-1-phosphate:NAD(P)+ 2-oxidoreductase. This enzyme is also called glycerol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase [NAD(P)+].
