NADH kinase
Definition:
EC Tree > 2 Transferases > 2.7 Transferring phosphorus-containing groups > 2.7.1 Phosphotransferases with an alcohol group as acceptor > 2.7.1.86 NADH kinase
NADH kinase is the NADPH-generating reductant-biosynthesis kinase specific for NADH. It phosphorylates NADH on the 2'-hydroxyl, releasing ADP and NADPH; CTP, ITP, UTP and GTP can also act as donors in decreasing order of activity, and acetate activates the enzyme. It is distinct from EC 2.7.1.23. Expected in Eukaryota and Bacteria.
