EC 1.2.1.102

Accepted name: isopyridoxal dehydrogenase (5-pyridoxate-forming)

Reaction: isopyridoxal + NAD+ + H2O = 5-pyridoxate + NADH + H+

Glossary: isopyridoxal = 5-hydroxy-4-(hydroxymethyl)-6-methylpyridine-3-carbaldehyde
5-pyridoxate = 3-hydroxy-4-hydroxymethyl-2-methylpyridine-5-carboxylate

Systematic name: isopyridoxal:NAD+ oxidoreductase (5-pyridoxate-forming)

Comments: The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Arthrobacter sp. Cr-7, participates in the degradation of pyridoxine. The enzyme also catalyses the activity of EC 1.1.1.416, isopyridoxal dehydrogenase (5-pyridoxolactone-forming).
