EC 1.4.1.26 Details
EC number
1.4.1.26
Accepted name
2,4-diaminopentanoate dehydrogenase (NAD+)
Reaction
(2R,4S)-2,4-diaminopentanoate + H2O + NAD+ = (2R)-2-amino-4-oxopentanoate + NH3 + NADH + H+
Other name(s)
DAPDH (ambiguous)
Systematic name
(2R,4S)-2,4-diaminopentanoate:NADP+ oxidoreductase (deaminating)
Comment
The enzyme, characterized from an unknown bacterium in an environmental sample, has some activity with (2R,4R)-2,4-diaminopentanoate. It has very low activity with NADP+ (cf. EC 1.4.1.12, 2,4-diaminopentanoate dehydrogenase).
