IntEnz Enzyme Nomenclature
EC 1.1.1.206

Names

Accepted name:
tropinone reductase I
Other names:
tropine dehydrogenase
tropinone reductase [ambiguous]
TR-I
Systematic name:
tropine:NADP+ 3α-oxidoreductase

Reaction

Comments:

Also oxidizes other tropan-3α-ols, but not the corresponding β-derivatives [1]. This enzyme along with EC 1.1.1.236, tropinone reductase II, represents a branch point in tropane alkaloid metabolism [4]. Tropine (the product of EC 1.1.1.206) is incorporated into hyoscyamine and scopolamine whereas pseudotropine (the product of EC 1.1.1.236) is the first specific metabolite on the pathway to the calystegines [4]. Both enzymes are always found together in any given tropane-alkaloid-producing species, have a common substrate, tropinone, and are strictly stereospecific [3].
