2-Deoxy-scyllo-inosamine dehydrogenase explained

2-deoxy-scyllo-inosamine dehydrogenase
Ec Number:1.1.1.329

2-deoxy-scyllo-inosamine dehydrogenase ( (gene name), kanK (gene name)) is an enzyme with systematic name 2-deoxy-scyllo-inosamine:NAD(P)+ 1-oxidoreductase.[1] [2] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

2-deoxy-scyllo-inosamine + NAD(P)+

\rightleftharpoons

3-amino-2,3-dideoxy-scyllo-inosose + NAD(P)H + H+

This enzyme requires zinc.
