Enzyme Information

1.1.1.363
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (NAD(P)(+)).
based on mapping to UniProt P11411
D-glucose 6-phosphate + NAD(P)(+) = 6-phospho-D-glucono-1,5-lactone + NAD(P)H.
-!- The enzyme catalyzes a step of the pentose phosphate pathway. -!- The enzyme from the Gram-positive bacterium Leuconostoc mesenteroides prefers NADP(+) while the enzyme from the Gram-negative bacterium Gluconacetobacter xylinus prefers NAD(+). -!- Cf. EC 1.1.1.49 and EC 1.1.1.388.
