Allyl-alcohol dehydrogenase
- Allyl-alcohol dehydrogenase
In enzymology, an allyl-alcohol dehydrogenase (EC number|1.1.1.54) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
:allyl alcohol + NADP+ acrolein + NADPH + H+
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are allyl alcohol and NADP+, whereas its 3 products are acrolein, 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 allyl-alcohol:NADP+ oxidoreductase.
