IntEnz Enzyme Nomenclature
EC 1.6.5.10

Names

Accepted name:
NADPH dehydrogenase (quinone)
Other names:
NADPH oxidase
reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (quinone) dehydrogenase
NADPH2 dehydrogenase (quinone)
Systematic name:
NADPH:(quinone-acceptor) oxidoreductase

Reaction

Cofactor

Comments:

A flavoprotein [1,2]. The enzyme from Escherichia coli is specific for NADPH and is most active with quinone derivatives and ferricyanide as electron acceptors [3]. Menaquinone can act as acceptor. The enzyme from hog liver is inhibited by dicoumarol and folic acid derivatives but not by 2,4-dinitrophenol [1].
