KEGG   ENZYME: 1.3.1.15
Entry
EC 1.3.1.15                 Enzyme                                 
Name
dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (NADP+);
orotate reductase;
dihydro-orotic dehydrogenase;
L-5,6-dihydro-orotate:NAD+ oxidoreductase;
orotate reductase (NADPH)
Class
Oxidoreductases;
Acting on the CH-CH group of donors;
With NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor
Sysname
(S)-dihydroorotate:NADP+ oxidoreductase
Reaction(IUBMB)
(S)-dihydroorotate + NADP+ = orotate + NADPH + H+ [RN:R01866]
Reaction(KEGG)
R01866
Substrate
(S)-dihydroorotate [CPD:C00337];
NADP+ [CPD:C00006]
Product
orotate [CPD:C00295];
NADPH [CPD:C00005];
H+ [CPD:C00080]
Comment
Binds FMN and FAD [2]. Other class 1 dihydroorotate dehydrogenases use either fumarate (EC 1.3.98.1) or NAD+ (EC 1.3.1.14) as electron acceptor. The membrane bound class 2 dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (EC 1.3.5.2) uses quinone as electron acceptor .
