NADPH-dependent aldehyde reductase YahK catalyzes the reduction of a wide range of aldehydes into their corresponding alcohols. Has a strong preference for NADPH over NADH as the electron donor. Cannot use a ketone as substrate. Is a major source of NADPH-dependent aldehyde reductase activity in E.coli[1]. In addition, this enzyme has been actively expressed in E.coli[2].These characteristics of RsAs attract us and thus we choose it as aldehyde reductase of our experiment.
