L-arabinitol 2-dehydrogenase


In enzymology, a L-arabinitol 2-dehydrogenase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The two substrates of this enzyme are L-arabinitol and the cofactor, oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. Its products are L-ribulose, 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 L-arabinitol:NAD+ 2-oxidoreductase . Other names in common use include L-arabinitol dehydrogenase , and L-arabinitol dehydrogenase. This enzyme participates in pentose and glucuronate interconversions.
