Reaction: 2 CoA + NADP+ = CoA-disulfide + NADPH + H+
Other name(s): CoA-disulfide reductase (NADH2); NADH2:CoA-disulfide oxidoreductase; CoA:NAD+ oxidoreductase (misleading); CoADR; coenzyme A disulfide reductase
Systematic name: CoA:NADP+ oxidoreductase
Comments: A flavoprotein. Not identical with EC 1.8.1.6 (cystine reductase), EC 1.8.1.7 (glutathione-disulfide reductase) or EC 1.8.1.13 (bis-γ-glutamylcystine reductase). The enzyme from the bacterium Staphylococcus aureus has a strong preference for NADPH [3], while the bacterium Bacillus megaterium contains both NADH and NADPH-dependent enzymes [1].
