Description
In enzymology, a phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (decarboxylating) (EC 1.1.1.44) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction:6-phospho-D-gluconate + NADP+? D-ribulose 5-phosphate + CO2 + NADPH. Thus, the two substRates of this enzyme are 6-phospho-D-gluconate and NADP+, whereas its 3 products are D-ribulose 5-phosphate, CO2, and NADPH. This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor.
