2-(S)-hydroxypropyl-CoM dehydrogenase 3

UniProtKB accession:  A7IQH5

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Involved in aliphatic epoxide carboxylation (PubMed:20302306). Catalyzes the reversible oxidation of (2S)-2-hydroxypropyl-coenzyme M (S-HPC) to 2-oxopropyl-coenzyme M (2-KPC) (PubMed:20302306). The enzyme is highly specific for the S enantiomers (PubMed:20302306). In vitro can also use the aliphatic ketone 2-butanone and the aliphatic alcohol 2-propanol, and shows an inherent stereoselectivity for 2-butanone reduction (PubMed:20302306).
