Glucose 1-dehydrogenase (NADP )
In enzymology, a glucose 1-dehydrogenase () is an enzyme that catalysis, catalyzes the chemical reaction :beta-D-glucose + NAD(P)+ \rightleftharpoons D-glucono-1,5-lactone + NAD(P)H + H+ The 3 substrate (biochemistry), substrates of this enzyme are glucose, beta-D-glucose, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, NAD+, and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate, NADP+, whereas its 4 product (chemistry), products are Glucono delta-lactone, D-glucono-1,5-lactone, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, NADH, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate, NADPH, and hydrogen ion, H+. This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The List of enzymes, systematic name of this enzyme class is beta-D-glucose:NAD(P)+ 1-oxidoreductase. Another name in common use is D-glucose dehydrogenase (NAD(P)+). Structural studies As of late 2007, 9 tertiary structure, structures have been solved for this class of e ...

Enzymology
An enzyme () is a protein that acts as a biological catalyst by accelerating chemical reactions. The molecules upon which enzymes may act are called substrate (chemistry), substrates, and the enzyme converts the substrates into different molecules known as product (chemistry), products. Almost all metabolism, metabolic processes in the cell (biology), cell need enzyme catalysis in order to occur at rates fast enough to sustain life. Metabolic pathways depend upon enzymes to catalyze individual steps. The study of enzymes is called ''enzymology'' and the field of pseudoenzyme, pseudoenzyme analysis recognizes that during evolution, some enzymes have lost the ability to carry out biological catalysis, which is often reflected in their amino acid sequences and unusual 'pseudocatalytic' properties. Enzymes are known to catalyze more than 5,000 biochemical reaction types. Other biocatalysts include Ribozyme, catalytic RNA molecules, also called ribozymes. They are sometimes descr ...
