In enzymology, a NADPH dehydrogenase (EC 1.6.99.1) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

NADPH + H + acceptor {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } NADP + reduced acceptor

The 3 substrates of this enzyme are NADPH, H, and acceptor, whereas its two products are NADP and reduced acceptor.

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on NADH or NADPH with other acceptors. It has 2 cofactors: FAD, and FMN.

Nomenclature

The systematic name of this enzyme class is NADPH:acceptor oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include

  • NADPH2 diaphorase
  • NADPH diaphorase
  • old yellow enzyme
  • diaphorase
  • dihydronicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate dehydrogenase
  • NADPH-dehydrogenase
  • NADPH-diaphorase
  • NADPH2-dehydrogenase
  • reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate dehydrogenase
  • TPNH dehydrogenase
  • TPNH-diaphorase
  • triphosphopyridine diaphorase
  • triphosphopyridine nucleotide diaphorase
