EC 1.1.1.141

Accepted name: 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase (NAD+)

Reaction: (5Z,13E,15S)-11α,15-dihydroxy-9-oxoprost-5,13-dienoate + NAD+ = (5Z,13E)-11α-hydroxy-9,15-dioxoprost-5,13-dienoate + NADH + H+

Other name(s): NAD+-dependent 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase (type I); PGDH; 11α,15-dihydroxy-9-oxoprost-13-enoate:NAD+ 15-oxidoreductase; 15-OH-PGDH; 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase; 15-hydroxyprostanoic dehydrogenase; NAD-specific 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase; prostaglandin dehydrogenase; 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase (NAD)

Systematic name: (5Z,13E,15S)-11α,15-dihydroxy-9-oxoprost-5,13-dienoate:NAD+ 15-oxidoreductase

Comments: Acts on prostaglandin E2, F and B1, but not on prostaglandin D2. cf. EC 1.1.1.196 15-hydroxyprostaglandin-D dehydrogenase (NADP+) and EC 1.1.1.197 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase (NADP+).
