(+)-neomenthol dehydrogenase

Class of enzymes (+)-neomenthol dehydrogenase 1.1.1.208 81811-47-4 0047501 In enzymology, a (+)-neomenthol dehydrogenase (1.1.1.208) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction 40% Q27089418 (+)-neomenthol 1.3 + NADP+ reversible H+ H+ Q424902 (–)-menthone + NADPH The two substrates of this enzyme are (+)-neomenthol and oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP+). Its products are (−)-menthone, reduced NADPH, and a proton.1.1.1.208 Kjonaas R, Martinkus-Taylor C, Croteau R Metabolism of Monoterpenes: Conversion of l-Menthone to l-Menthol and d-Neomenthol by Stereospecific Dehydrogenases from Peppermint (Mentha piperita) Leaves Plant Physiology 69 5 1013–7 May 1982 16662335 426349 10.1104/pp.69.5.1013 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 (+)-neomenthol:NADP+ oxidoreductase. This enzyme is also called monoterpenoid dehydrogenase. This enzyme participates in monoterpenoid biosynthesis.
