Function

NADPH dehydrogenase or old yellow enzyme (OYE) catalyzes the conversion of NADPH, H+ and acceptor to NADP+ and reduced acceptor[1]. See NAD(P)H. The acceptor is a quinone. OYE is a flavoenzyme with two cofactors: FAD and FMN.

Structural highlights

OYE cofactor FMN interacts with the ligand[2].
