diacetyl reductase [(R)-acetoin forming] EC#: 1.1.1.303; ChemWhat Code: 1373410

Product Name diacetyl reductase [(R)-acetoin forming]
Example Structure Example Structure of diacetyl reductase [(R)-acetoin forming] EC#: 1.1.1.303
Synonyms acetoin(diacetyl) reductase, AdR
EC Number 1.1.1.303
CAS Registry Number 9028-49-3
Comments The reaction is catalysed in the reverse direction. This activity is usually associated with butanediol dehydrogenase activity (EC 1.1.1.4 or EC 1.1.1.76). While the butanediol dehydrogenase activity is reversible, diacetyl reductase activity is irreversible. This enzyme has been reported in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae [1,2]. Different from EC 1.1.1.304, diacetyl reductase [(S)-acetoin forming].
Cofactor
History
Reactions (R)-acetoin + NAD(+) = diacetyl + Nadh.
