In enzymology, a 2-hydroxy-3-oxopropionate reductase (EC 1.1.1.60) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The two substrates of this enzyme are D-glyceric acid and oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). Its products are 2-hydroxy-3-oxopropanoate, reduced NADH, and a proton. The enzyme can alternatively use nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate as its cofactor. [1] [2]
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is (R)-glycerate:NAD(P)+ oxidoreductase. This enzyme is also called tartronate semialdehyde reductase. This enzyme participates in glyoxylate and dicarboxylate metabolism.
As of late 2007, only one structure has been solved for this class of enzymes, with the PDB accession code 1YB4.
