Enzyme Commission Number
EC 1.1.1.405
Product Overview
High-quality enzyme products.
Well-established quality management system.
Reaction
D-ribitol 5-phosphate + NADP+ = D-ribulose 5-phosphate + NADPH + H+
Systematic Name
D-ribitol-5-phosphate:NADP+ 2-oxidoreductase
Function
Requires Zn2+. The enzyme, characterized in bacteria, is specific for NADP. It is part of the synthesis pathway of CDP-ribitol. In Haemophilus influenzae it is part of a multifunctional enzyme also catalysing EC 2.7.7.40, D-ribitol-5-phosphate cytidylyltransferase. cf. EC 1.1.1.137, ribitol-5-phosphate 2-dehydrogenase.
Other name
acs1 (gene name); bcs1 (gene name); tarJ (gene name); ribulose-5-phosphate reductase; ribulose-5-P reductase; D-ribulose 5-phosphate reductase
