FunFam 178: Sorbitol dehydrogenase

There are 2 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
D-xylulose reductase. [EC: 1.1.1.9]
Xylitol + NAD(+) = D-xylulose + NADH.
  • Also acts as an L-erythrulose reductase.
 1 Q29318
L-iditol 2-dehydrogenase. [EC: 1.1.1.14]
L-iditol + NAD(+) = L-sorbose + NADH.
  • This enzyme is widely distributed and has been described in archaea, bacteria, yeast, plants and animals.
  • It acts on a number of sugar alcohols, including (but not limited to) L-iditol, D-glucitol, D-xylitol, and D-galactitol.
  • Enzymes from different organisms or tissues display different substrate specificity.
  • The enzyme is specific to NAD(+) and can not use NADP(+).
