Mannitol 2-dehydrogenase
In enzymology, a mannitol 2-dehydrogenase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The two substrates of this enzyme are D-mannitol and oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. Its products are D-fructose, 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 D-mannitol:NAD+ 2-oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include D-mannitol dehydrogenase, and mannitol dehydrogenase. This enzyme participates in fructose and mannose metabolism.
