Comments
This enzyme belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase (SDR) superfamily, along with Drosophia alcohol dehydrogenase (S00319 in EzCatDB). This enzyme has got a catalytic triad composed of conserved residues, Ser, Tyr, and Lys. The conformation of these residues, compared to that of the NAD molecule, seems to be similar to that of the homologous enzymes. Thus, this enzyme catalyzes hydride transfer reaction from NADH to substrate.
Moreover, there is a disulfide bond between Cys138 and Cys150, whose conformation seems to be structurally unstable, near the active site (see [8]). This property is very unique to this enzyme, compared to the other homologous enzymes. The disulfide bond might be involved in regulation of the enzyme activity, through its S-cysteinylation (see [8]).
