1-Deoxy-11beta-hydroxypentalenate dehydrogenase

1-deoxy-11beta-hydroxypentalenate dehydrogenase (, 1-deoxy-11beta-hydroxypentalenic acid dehydrogenase, ptlF (gene), penF (gene name)) is an enzyme with systematic name 1-deoxy-11beta-hydroxypentalenate:NAD+ oxidoreductase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction


 * 1-deoxy-11beta-hydroxypentalenate + NAD+ $$\rightleftharpoons$$ 1-deoxy-11-oxopentalenate + NADH + H+

This enzyme from the bacterium Streptomyces avermitilis participates in pentalenolactone biosynthesis.
