EC 1.6.1.5 Details

show Brenda entry

EC number

1.6.1.5

Accepted name

proton-translocating NAD(P)⁺ transhydrogenase

Reaction

NADPH + NAD⁺ + H⁺_{[side 1]} = NADP⁺ + NADH + H⁺_{[side 2]}

Other name(s)

pntA (gene name), pntB (gene name), NNT (gene name)

Systematic name

NADPH:NAD⁺ oxidoreductase (H⁺-transporting)

Comment

The enzyme is a membrane bound proton-translocating pyridine nucleotide transhydrogenase that couples the reversible reduction of NADP by NADH to an inward proton translocation across the membrane. In the bacterium Escherichia coli the enzyme provides a major source of cytosolic NADPH. Detoxification of reactive oxygen species in mitochondria by glutathione peroxidases depends on NADPH produced by this enzyme.
