1.1.1.424 |
Accepted name: |
D-xylose 1-dehydrogenase (NADP+, D-xylono-1,4-lactone-forming) |
Reaction: |
D-xylose + NADP+ = D-xylono-1,4-lactone + NADPH + H+ |
Other name(s): |
xacA (gene name); xdh (gene name) |
Systematic name: |
D-xylose:NADP+ 1-oxidoreductase (D-xylono-1,4-lactone-forming) |
Comments: |
The enzyme, which participates in the degradation of D-xylose, has been characterized from several halophilic archaeal species. cf. EC 1.1.1.179, D-xylose 1-dehydrogenase (NADP+, D-xylono-1,5-lactone-forming). |
