In enzymology, a D-xylose 1-dehydrogenase (NADP) (EC 1.1.1.179) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

D-xylose + NADP {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } D-xylono-1,5-lactone + NADPH + H

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are D-xylose and NADP, whereas its 3 products are D-xylono-1,5-lactone, NADPH, and H.

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with NAD or NADP as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is D-xylose:NADP 1-oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include D-xylose (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate), dehydrogenase, D-xylose-NADP dehydrogenase, D-xylose:NADP oxidoreductase, and D-xylose 1-dehydrogenase (NADP).
