Well-established quality management system.
Reaction
D-erythrose 4-phosphate + NAD+ + H2O = 4-phosphoerythronate
+ NADH + 2 H+
Systematic Name
D-erythrose 4-phosphate:NAD+ oxidoreductase
Function
This enzyme was originally thought to be a glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.12), but this has since been disproved, as glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate is not a substrate. Forms part of the pyridoxal-5′-phosphate coenzyme biosynthesis pathway in Escherichia coli, along with EC 1.1.1.290 (4-phosphoerythronate dehydrogenase), EC 2.6.1.52 (phosphoserine transaminase), EC 1.1.1.262 (4-hydroxythreonine-4-phosphate dehydrogenase), EC 2.6.99.2 (pyridoxine 5′-phosphate synthase) and EC 1.4.3.5 (pyridoxamine-phosphate oxidase).
Other name
erythrose 4-phosphate dehydrogenase; E4PDH; GapB; Epd dehydrogenase; E4P dehydrogenase
