Name L-xylulose reductase
Synonyms
  1. Carbonyl reductase II
  2. Dicarbonyl/L-xylulose reductase
  3. Kidney dicarbonyl reductase
  4. Sperm surface protein P34H
  5. XR
  6. kiDCR
Gene Name DCXR
Protein Type Enzyme
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in oxidoreductase activity
Specific Function Catalyzes the NADPH-dependent reduction of several pentoses, tetroses, trioses, alpha-dicarbonyl compounds and L-xylulose. Participates in the uronate cycle of glucose metabolism. May play a role in the water absorption and cellular osmoregulation in the proximal renal tubules by producing xylitol, an osmolyte, thereby preventing osmolytic stress from occurring in the renal tubules.
Pathways
  • Pentose and glucuronate interconversions
