(+)-Pulegone reductase

(+)-pulegone reductase (EC 1.3.1.81) is an enzyme with systematic name (−)-menthone:NADP⁺ oxidoreductase.^[1] This enzyme catalises the following chemical reaction

(1) (−)-menthone + NADP⁺ ${\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons }$ (+)-pulegone + NADPH + H⁺

(2) (+)-isomenthone + NADP⁺ ${\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons }$ (+)-pulegone + NADPH + H⁺
