In enzymology a phosphogluconate 2-dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.43) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction6-phospho-D-gluconate + NAD(P)+ 6-phospho-2-dehydro-D-gluconate + NAD(P)H + H+The 3 substrates of this enzyme are 6-phospho-D-gluconic acid NAD+ and NADP+ whereas its 4 products are 6-phospho-2-dehydro-D-gluconic acid NADH 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.
