In enzymology a Delta1-piperideine-2-carboxylate reductase (EC 1.5.1.21) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionL-pipecolate + NADP+ Delta1-piperideine-2-carboxylate + NADPH + H+Thus the two substrates of this enzyme are L-pipecolate and NADP+ whereas its 3 products are Delta1-piperideine-2-carboxylate NADPH and H+.This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases specifically those acting on the CH-NH group of donors with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor.
