Oxidoreductase

Molecular classification: Enzyme

Overview

Oxidoreductases are a class of enzymes that catalyze oxidation-reduction (redox) reactions, facilitating the transfer of electrons from one molecule (the reductant) to another (the oxidant). These enzymes are essential for numerous metabolic pathways and cellular processes, including energy production, biosynthesis, detoxification, and cellular signaling. They are classified under EC 1 in the Enzyme Commission number system and often utilize cofactors such as NAD+, NADP+, FAD, or heme groups to facilitate electron transfer.
