Inositol 2-dehydrogenase

In enzymology, an inositol 2-dehydrogenase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The two substrates of this enzyme are myo-inositol and oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. Its products are 2,4,6/3,5-pentahydroxycyclohexanone, reduced NADH, and a proton.
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 myo-inositol:NAD⁺ 2-oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include myo-inositol 2-dehydrogenase, myo-inositol:NAD⁺ oxidoreductase, inositol dehydrogenase, and myo-inositol dehydrogenase. This enzyme participates in inositol metabolism and inositol phosphate metabolism.
