(+)-Pulegone reductase

(+)-pulegone reductase is an enzyme with systematic name (−)-menthone:NADP+ oxidoreductase. This enzyme catalises the following chemical reaction


 * (1) (−)-menthone + NADP+ $$\rightleftharpoons$$ (+)-pulegone + NADPH + H+
 * (2) (+)-isomenthone + NADP+ $$\rightleftharpoons$$ (+)-pulegone + NADPH + H+

NADH cannot replace NADPH as reductant.
