| glutathione reductase | <enzyme> An FAD containing enzyme, a dimer of 50 kD subunits. It catalyses the NADP dependent reduction of glutathione disulphide (GSSG) to glutathione (GSH). This is an essential reaction that maintains a GSH:GSSG ratio in the cytoplasm of _500:1. (18 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| glyceryl trinitrate reductase | <enzyme> May be an enzyme system; from fungus phanerochaete chrysosporium; requires NADPH; forms glyceryl dinitrates, and ultimately, glyceryl mononitrates and no Registry number: EC 1.7.3.- Synonym: gtn-reductase, glycerol trinitrate reductase, gtn reductase (26 Jun 1999) |
| glycine reductase | <enzyme> Glycine is reductively deaminated to acetate and ammonia by a complex requiring a dithiol and synthesizing ATP Registry number: EC 1.4.1.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| GMP reductase | <abbreviation> Guanylic acid reductase. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pentaerythritol tetranitrate reductase | <enzyme> Catalyses denitration of pentaerythritol tetranitrate with NADPH to 3-hydroxy-2,2-bis-((nitroxy)methyl)propanal and 2,2-bis-((nitroxy)methyl)-propanedial; isolated from enterobacter cloacae Registry number: EC 1.7.99.- Synonym: petn reductase (26 Jun 1999) |

| mercuric reductase | <enzyme> Reduces hg2+ to volatile hg, contains fad, requires NADPH Registry number: EC 1.16.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| ribonucleoside diphosphate reductase | <enzyme> An enzyme of the oxidoreductase class that catalyses the formation of 2'-deoxyribonucleotides from the corresponding ribonucleotides using NADPH as the ultimate electron donor. The deoxyribonucleoside diphosphates are used in DNA synthesis. Chemical name: 2'-Deoxyribonucleoside-diphosphate:oxidised-thioredoxin 2'-oxidoreductase Registry number: EC 1.17.4.1 (12 Dec 1998) |
| ribonucleoside-triphosphate reductase | <enzyme> Requires a cobamide coenzyme and ATP Registry number: EC 1.17.4.2 Synonym: rtp reductase (26 Jun 1999) |
| ribonucleotide reductase | A protein complex that converts ribonucleotide diphosphates (NDPs) such as ADP and CDP to 2'-deoxyribonucleotide diphosphates (dNDPs) such as dADP and dCDP. This complex requires thioredoxin, thioredoxin reductase, and NADPH. It is crucial for DNA synthesis. (05 Mar 2000) |
