| Accepted name: |
aryl-alcohol dehydrogenase (NADP+) |
| Reaction: |
an aromatic alcohol + NADP+ = an aromatic aldehyde + NADPH + H+ |
| Other name(s): |
aryl alcohol dehydrogenase (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate); coniferyl alcohol dehydrogenase; NADPH-linked benzaldehyde reductase; aryl-alcohol dehydrogenase (NADP) |
| Systematic name: |
aryl-alcohol:NADP+ oxidoreductase |
| Comments: |
Also acts on some aliphatic aldehydes, but cinnamaldehyde was the best substrate found. |
