3alpha-hydroxyglycyrrhetinate dehydrogenase

In enzymology, a 3alpha-hydroxyglycyrrhetinate dehydrogenase (EC number|1.1.1.230) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

:3alpha-hydroxyglycyrrhetinate + NADP⁺ $ightleftharpoons$ 3-oxoglycyrrhetinate + NADPH + H⁺

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are 3alpha-hydroxyglycyrrhetinate and NADP⁺, whereas its 3 products are 3-oxoglycyrrhetinate, 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 3alpha-hydroxyglycyrrhetinate:NADP+ 3-oxidoreductase.
