IUBMB Comments

A zinc protein. Some members of this group oxidize only primary alcohols; others act also on secondary alcohols. May be identical with EC 1.1.1.19 (L-glucuronate reductase), EC 1.1.1.33 [mevaldate reductase (NADPH)] and EC 1.1.1.55 [lactaldehyde reductase (NADPH)]. Re-specific with respect to NADPH.

The expected taxonomic range for this enzyme is: Eukaryota, Bacteria, Archaea

Synonyms
nadph-cytochrome c reductase, aldo-keto reductase, liver alcohol dehydrogenase, adh-1, adh-2, short-chain alcohol dehydrogenase, lbadh, cbadh, nadph-dependent aldehyde reductase, tsadh319, more
