In enzymology, a (+)-neomenthol dehydrogenase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
(+)-neomenthol + NADP
\rightleftharpoons
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are (+)-neomenthol and NADP, whereas its 3 products are (−)-menthone, NADPH, and H.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with NAD or NADP as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is (+)-neomenthol:NADP oxidoreductase. This enzyme is also called monoterpenoid dehydrogenase. This enzyme participates in monoterpenoid biosynthesis.
