11-cis-retinol dehydrogenase

Class of enzymes

11-cis-retinol dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.315, RDH5 (gene)) is an enzyme with systematic name 11-cis-retinol:NAD+ oxidoreductase.[1][2][3][4] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

11-cis-retinol---[retinal-binding-protein] + NAD+ 11-cis-retinal---[retinol-binding-protein] + NADH + H+
Quick Facts Identifiers, EC no. ...

This enzyme from retinal pigment epithelium, catalyses the reduction of 11-cis-retinol to 11-cis-retinal.
