Phloroglucinol reductase
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In enzymology, a phloroglucinol reductase (EC 1.3.1.57) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- dihydrophloroglucinol + NADP+ phloroglucinol + NADPH + H+
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are dihydrophloroglucinol and NADP+, whereas its 3 products are phloroglucinol, NADPH, and H+.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-CH group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is dihydrophloroglucinol:NADP+ oxidoreductase. This enzyme participates in benzoate degradation via coa ligation.
