abstract：:Dihydropteridine reductase (EC 1.6.99.7) is a member of the recently identified family of proteins known as short-chain dehydrogenases. When the x-ray structure of dihydropteridine reductase is correlated with conserved amino acid sequences characteristic of this enzyme class, two important common structural regions c...
