In enzymology, a diaminopimelate dehydrogenase (EC 1.4.1.16) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

meso-2,6-diaminoheptanedioate + H2O + NADP+ L-2-amino-6-oxoheptanedioate + NH3 + NADPH + H+

The 3 substrates of this enzyme are meso-2,6-diaminoheptanedioate, H2O, and NADP+, whereas its 4 products are L-2-amino-6-oxoheptanedioate, NH3, NADPH, and H+.

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-NH2 group of donors with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is meso-2,6-diaminoheptanedioate:NADP+ oxidoreductase (deaminating). Other names in common use include meso-alpha,epsilon-diaminopimelate dehydrogenase, and meso-diaminopimelate dehydrogenase. This enzyme participates in lysine biosynthesis.

Structural studies

As of late 2007, 4 structures have been solved for this class of enzymes, with PDB accession codes 1DAP, 1F06, 2DAP, and 3DAP.

In enzymology, an aspartate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase is an enzyme that is very important in the biosynthesis of amino acids in prokaryotes, fungi, and some higher plants. It forms an early branch point in the metabolic pathway forming lysine, methionine, leucine and isoleucine from aspartate. This pathway also produces diaminopimelate which plays an essential role in bacterial cell wall formation. There is particular interest in ASADH as disabling this enzyme proves fatal to the organism giving rise to the possibility of a new class of antibiotics, fungicides, and herbicides aimed at inhibiting it.
