EC 1.6.5.10 Details

show Brenda entry

EC number

1.6.5.10

Accepted name

NADPH dehydrogenase (quinone)

Reaction

NADPH + H⁺ + a quinone = NADP⁺ + a quinol

Other name(s)

reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (quinone) dehydrogenase, NADPH oxidase, NADPH₂ dehydrogenase (quinone)

Systematic name

NADPH:(quinone-acceptor) oxidoreductase

CAS registry number

37256-37-4

Comment

A flavoprotein [1, 2]. The enzyme from Escherichia coli is specific for NADPH and is most active with quinone derivatives and ferricyanide as electron acceptors [3]. Menaquinone can act as acceptor. The enzyme from hog liver is inhibited by dicoumarol and folic acid derivatives but not by 2,4-dinitrophenol [1].

History

created 1972 as EC 1.6.99.6, transferred 2011 to EC 1.6.5.10
