NAD(P)H-hydrate epimerase (APOA1BP) is a homodimeric protein located in the mitochondrion (Ritter et al. 2002). Mammalian APOA1BP is able to mediate the epimerisation of the R-form of NAD(P)HX, a damaged form of NAD(P)H that is a result of enzymatic or heat-dependent hydration (Marbaix et al. 2011). This is a prerequisite for the S-specific NAD(P)H-hydrate dehydratase to allow the repair of both epimers of NAD(P)HX.
