ENZYME entry: EC 1.1.1.351

Accepted Name
Phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (NAD(P)(+)-dependent, decarboxylating).
Reaction catalysed
6-phospho-D-gluconate + NAD(P)(+) <=> D-ribulose 5-phosphate + CO(2) + NAD(P)H
Comment(s)
  • The enzyme participates in the oxidative branch of the pentose phosphate pathway, whose main purpose is to produce reducing power and pentose for biosynthetic reactions.
  • Unlike EC 1.1.1.44, it is not specific for NADP(+) and can accept both cofactors with similar efficiency.
  • Cf. EC 1.1.1.343.
