Description
Highly specific for 4-hydroxynon-2-enal and non-2-enal. Alk-2-enals of shorter chain have lower affinities. Exhibits high activities also for alk-2-enones such as but-3-en-2-one and pent-3-en-2-one. Inactive with cyclohex-2-en-1-one and 12-oxophytodienoic acid. Involved in the detoxication of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes and ketones [cf. EC 1.3.1.102, 2-alkenal reductase (NADP+)].
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC~-80 ºC.
Synonyms
NAD(P)H-dependent alkenal/one oxidoreductase; NADPH:2-alkenal α,β-hydrogenase; 2-alkenal reductase
Reaction
a n-alkanal + NAD(P)+ = an alk-2-enal + NAD(P)H + H+
