Arogenate dehydrogenase (NADP+)
Template:Short description Template:No footnotes Template:Infobox enzyme In enzymology, an arogenate dehydrogenase (NADP+) (Template:EC number) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- L-arogenate + NADP+ L-tyrosine + NADPH + CO2
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are L-arogenate and NADP+, whereas its 3 products are L-tyrosine, NADPH, and CO2.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-CH group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is L-arogenate:NADP+ oxidoreductase (decarboxylating). Other names in common use include arogenic dehydrogenase (ambiguous), pretyrosine dehydrogenase (ambiguous), TyrAAT1, TyrAAT2, and TyrAa.
