In enzymology a gluconate 2-dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.215) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionD-gluconate + NADP+ 2-dehydro-D-gluconate + NADPH + H+Thus the two substrates of this enzyme are D-gluconate and NADP+ whereas its 3 products are 2-dehydro-D-gluconate NADPH and 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.
