In enzymology, a prostaglandin-E₂ 9-reductase (EC 1.1.1.189) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

(5Z,13E)-(15S)-9alpha,11alpha,15-trihydroxyprosta-5,13-dienoate + NADP⁺ $\rightleftharpoons$ (5Z,13E)-(15S)-11alpha,15-dihydroxy-9-oxoprosta-5,13-dienoate + NADPH + H⁺

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are (5Z,13E)-(15S)-9alpha,11alpha,15-trihydroxyprosta-5,13-dienoate and NADP⁺, whereas its 3 products are (5Z,13E)-(15S)-11alpha,15-dihydroxy-9-oxoprosta-5,13-dienoate, 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 (5Z,13E)-(15S)-9alpha,11alpha,15-trihydroxyprosta-5,13-dienoate:NADP⁺ 9-oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include PGE₂-9-OR, reductase, 15-hydroxy-9-oxoprostaglandin, 9-keto-prostaglandin E₂ reductase, 9-ketoprostaglandin reductase, PGE-9-ketoreductase, PGE₂ 9-oxoreductase, PGE₂ reductase-9-ketoreductase, prostaglandin 9-ketoreductase, prostaglandin E 9-ketoreductase, and prostaglandin E₂ reductase-9-oxoreductase. This enzyme participates in arachidonic acid metabolism.

Structural studies
