In enzymology a glycerol 2-dehydrogenase (NADP+) (EC 1.1.1.156) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionglycerol + NADP+ glycerone + NADPH + H+Thus the two substrates of this enzyme are glycerol and NADP+ whereas its 3 products are glycerone 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.
