1.1.1.399 |
Accepted name: |
2-oxoglutarate reductase |
Reaction: |
(R)-2-hydroxyglutarate + NAD+ = 2-oxoglutarate + NADH + H+ |
Other name(s): |
serA (gene name) |
Systematic name: |
(R)-2-hydroxyglutarate:NAD+ 2-oxidireductase |
Comments: |
The enzyme catalyses a reversible reaction. The enzyme from the bacterium Peptoniphilus asaccharolyticus is specific for (R)-2-hydroxyglutarate [1,2]. The SerA enzyme from the bacterium Escherichia coli can also accept (S)-2-hydroxyglutarate with a much higher Km, and also catalyses the activity of EC 1.1.1.95, phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase [3]. |
