ENZYME entry: EC 1.1.1.422
Accepted Name |
Pseudoephedrine dehydrogenase.
|
Reaction catalysed |
(+)-(1S,2S)-pseudoephedrine + NAD(+) <=> (S)-2-methylamino-1-phenylpropan-1-one + NADH |
Comment(s) |
- The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Arthrobacter sp. TS-15,
acts on a broad range of different aryl-alkyl ketones, such as
haloketones, ketoamines, diketones, and ketoesters.
- It accepts various types of aryl groups including phenyl-, pyridyl-,
thienyl-, and furyl-rings, but the presence of an aromatic ring is
essential for the activity.
- In addition, the presence of a functional group on the alkyl chain,
such as an amine, a halogen, or a ketone, is also crucial.
- The enzyme exhibits a strict anti-Prelog enantioselectivity.
- When acting on diketones, it catalyzes the reduction of only the keto
group closest to the ring, with no further reduction to the diol.
- Cf. EC 1.1.1.423.
