Description
An iron-sulfur flavoenzyme. The enzyme was originally discovered in the uracil-fermenting bacterium, Clostridium uracilicum, which utilizes uracil and thymine as nitrogen and carbon sources for growth. Since then the enzyme was found in additional organisms including Alcaligenes eutrophus, Pseudomonas strains and Escherichia coli.
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
dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase; dihydrothymine dehydrogenase; pyrimidine reductase; thymine reductase; uracil reductase; dihydrouracil dehydrogenase (NAD+)
Reaction
(1) 5,6-dihydrouracil + NAD+ = uracil + NADH + H+; (2) 5,6-dihydrothymine + NAD+ = thymine + NADH + H+
