NAD(P)H-hydrate epimerase

UniProtKB accession:  Q8K4Z3

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Catalyzes the epimerization of the S- and R-forms of NAD(P)HX, a damaged form of NAD(P)H that is a result of enzymatic or heat-dependent hydration (By similarity) (PubMed:21994945). This is a prerequisite for the S-specific NAD(P)H-hydrate dehydratase to allow the repair of both epimers of NAD(P)HX (By similarity). Accelerates cholesterol efflux from endothelial cells to high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and thereby regulates angiogenesis (By similarity).
