- Xanthommatin reductase
In
enzymology , a xanthommatin reductase (EC number|1.3.1.41) is anenzyme that catalyzes thechemical reaction :5,12-dihydroxanthommatin + NAD+ xanthommatin + NADH + H+
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are
5,12-dihydroxanthommatin and NAD+, whereas its 3 products arexanthommatin , NADH, and H+.This enzyme belongs to the family of
oxidoreductase s, specifically those acting on the CH-CH group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 5,12-dihydroxanthommatin:NAD+ oxidoreductase.References
