EC 1.1.1.354 Details
show Brenda entryEC number
1.1.1.354
Accepted name
farnesol dehydrogenase (NAD+)
Reaction
(2E,6E)-farnesol + NAD+ = (2E,6E)-farnesal + NADH + H+
Other name(s)
NAD+-farnesol dehydrogenase
Systematic name
(2E,6E)-farnesol:NAD+ 1-oxidoreductase
Comment
The enzyme from the prune mite Carpoglyphus lactis also acts on geraniol with greater activity [cf. EC 1.1.1.347, geraniol dehydrogenase (NAD+)]. Unlike EC 1.1.1.216, farnesol dehydrogenase (NADP+), this enzyme cannot use NADP+ as cofactor.
