D-xylose reductase

D-xylose reductase (, "XylR", "XyrA", "msXR", "dsXR", "monospecific xylose reductase", "dual specific xylose reductase", "NAD(P)H-dependent xylose reductase", "xylose reductase") is an enzyme with systematic name "xylitol:NAD(P)+ oxidoreductase". This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
Xylose reductase catalyses the initial reaction in the xylose utilization pathway, the NAD(P)H dependent reduction of xylose to xylitol.
