- 2,4-diaminopentanoate dehydrogenase
In
enzymology , a 2,4-diaminopentanoate dehydrogenase (EC number|1.4.1.12) is anenzyme that catalyzes thechemical reaction :2,4-diaminopentanoate + H2O + NAD(P)+ 2-amino-4-oxopentanoate + NH3 + NAD(P)H + H+
The 4 substrates of this enzyme are
2,4-diaminopentanoate , H2O, NAD+, and NADP+, whereas its 5 products are2-amino-4-oxopentanoate , NH3, NADH, NADPH, and H+.This enzyme belongs to the family of
oxidoreductase s, specifically those acting on the CH-NH2 group of donors with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 2,4-diaminopentanoate:NAD(P)+ oxidoreductase (deaminating). This enzyme is also called 2,4-diaminopentanoic acid C4 dehydrogenase. This enzyme participates in 3 metabolic pathways:lysine degradation ,arginine and proline metabolism , andd-arginine and d-ornithine metabolism .References
