In enzymology, a glyoxylate reductase (NADP+) (EC 1.1.1.79) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- glycolate + NADP+ glyoxylate + NADPH + H+
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are glycolate and NADP+, whereas its 3 products are glyoxylate, NADPH, and H+.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is glycolate:NADP+ oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include NADPH-glyoxylate reductase, and glyoxylate reductase (NADP+). This enzyme participates in pyruvate metabolism and glyoxylate and dicarboxylate metabolism.
Structural studies
[edit]As of late 2007, 3 structures have been solved for this class of enzymes, with PDB accession codes 2GCG, 2H1S, and 2Q50.
