Cyclopentanol dehydrogenase

Add article description


In enzymology, a cyclopentanol dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.163) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

cyclopentanol + NAD+ cyclopentanone + NADH + H+

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are cyclopentanol and NAD+, whereas its 3 products are cyclopentanone, NADH, 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 cyclopentanol:NAD+ oxidoreductase.
