Indanol dehydrogenase explained

indanol dehydrogenase
Ec Number:	1.1.1.112
Cas Number:	37250-43-4
Go Code:	0047718

In enzymology, an indanol dehydrogenase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

indan-1-ol + NAD(P)+

\rightleftharpoons indanone + NAD(P)H + H⁺

The 3 substrates of this enzyme are indan-1-ol, NAD⁺, and NADP⁺, whereas its 4 products are indanone, NADH, 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 indan-1-ol:NAD(P)⁺ 1-oxidoreductase.
