3alpha-hydroxyglycyrrhetinate dehydrogenase

Template:Short description Template:Infobox enzyme In enzymology, a 3alpha-hydroxyglycyrrhetinate dehydrogenase (Template:EC number) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

3alpha-hydroxyglycyrrhetinate + NADP⁺ $\rightleftharpoons$ 3-oxoglycyrrhetinate + NADPH + H⁺

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are 3alpha-hydroxyglycyrrhetinate and NADP⁺, whereas its 3 products are 3-oxoglycyrrhetinate, 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 3alpha-hydroxyglycyrrhetinate:NADP⁺ 3-oxidoreductase.
