1.1.1.377 |
Accepted name: |
L-rhamnose 1-dehydrogenase (NADP+) |
Reaction: |
L-rhamnose + NADP+ = L-rhamnono-1,4-lactone + NADPH + H+ |
Systematic name: |
L-rhamnose:NADP+ 1-oxidoreductase |
Comments: |
The enzyme from the archaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum is part of the non-phosphorylative degradation pathway for L-rhamnose. The enzyme differs in cofactor specificity from EC 1.1.1.173, L-rhamnose 1-dehydrogenase, which is specific for NAD+. |
