Hydroxyacid-oxoacid transhydrogenase
In enzymology, a hydroxyacid-oxoacid transhydrogenase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are -3-hydroxybutanoate and 2-oxoglutarate, whereas its two products are acetoacetate and -2-hydroxyglutarate.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with other acceptors. The systematic name of this enzyme class is -3-hydroxybutanoate:2-oxoglutarate oxidoreductase. This enzyme is also called transhydrogenase, hydroxy acid-oxo acid.
