Tagaturonate reductase

Tagaturonate reductase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
Thhe two substrates of this enzyme are D-altronic acid and oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. Its products are D-tagaturonic acid, 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-altronate:NAD⁺ 3-oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include altronic oxidoreductase, altronate oxidoreductase, TagUAR, altronate dehydrogenase, and D-tagaturonate reductase. This enzyme participates in pentose and glucuronate interconversions.
