Function

[YDIB_SALTY] The actual biological function of YdiB remains unclear, nor is it known whether 3-dehydroshikimate or quinate represents the natural substrate. Catalyzes the reversible NAD-dependent reduction of both 3-dehydroshikimate (DHSA) and 3-dehydroquinate to yield shikimate (SA) and quinate, respectively. It can use both NAD or NADP for catalysis, however it has higher catalytic efficiency with NAD.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01578]
