Codeinone reductase (NADPH)
Definition:
EC Tree > 1 Oxidoreductases > 1.1 Acting on the CH-OH group of donors > 1.1.1 With NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor > 1.1.1.247 codeinone reductase (NADPH)
Codeinone reductase (NADPH) catalyzes the reversible reduction of codeinone to codeine, a direct precursor of morphine in the opium poppy Papaver somniferum. Written oxidatively, it converts codeine to codeinone, concomitantly reducing NADP+ to NADPH and releasing H+. It occurs in viruses and cellular organisms.
