5-formyl-3-hydroxy-2-methylpyridine 4-carboxylate 5-dehydrogenase

UniProtKB accession:  Q988C8

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Involved in the degradation of pyridoxine (vitamin B(6)). Catalyzes the oxidation of 5-formyl-3-hydroxy-2-methylpyridine-4-carboxylate (FHMPC) by NAD(+) to 5-hydroxy-6-methylpyridine-3,4-dicarboxylate (HMPDC) (PubMed:19218190). Can also catalyze the reduction of FHMPC by NADH to 4-pyridoxic acid (PubMed:19218190).
