8-oxocoformycin reductase

Template:Short description Template:Infobox enzyme In enzymology, a 8-oxocoformycin reductase (Template:EC number) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

coformycin + NADP⁺ $\rightleftharpoons$ 8-oxocoformycin + NADPH + H⁺

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are coformycin and NADP⁺, whereas its 3 products are 8-oxocoformycin, 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 coformycin:NADP⁺ 8-oxidoreductase. This enzyme is also called 8-ketodeoxycoformycin reductase.
