 |
| Sysname |
3-hydroxy-2-methyl-3-phytyl-2,3-dihydronaphthoquinone:oxidized-dithiothreitol oxidoreductase
|
| Reaction(IUBMB) |
3-hydroxy-2-methyl-3-phytyl-2,3-dihydronaphthoquinone + oxidized dithiothreitol = 2,3-epoxy-2,3-dihydro-2-methyl-3-phytyl-1,4-naphthoquinone + 1,4-dithiothreitol [RN: R03512]
|
| Reaction(KEGG) |
|
| Substrate |
3-hydroxy-2-methyl-3-phytyl-2,3-dihydronaphthoquinone [CPD: C02785];
oxidized dithiothreitol [CPD: C01119]
|
| Product |
2,3-epoxy-2,3-dihydro-2-methyl-3-phytyl-1,4-naphthoquinone [CPD: C05849];
1,4-dithiothreitol [CPD: C00265]
|
| Comment |
In the reverse reaction, vitamin K 2,3-epoxide is reduced to 3-hydroxy- (and 2-hydroxy-) vitamin K by 1,4-dithiothreitol, which is oxidized to a disulfide. Not inhibited by warfarin [cf. EC 1.1.4.1 vitamin-K-epoxide reductase (warfarin-sensitive)].
