Acts equally well on hydrated NADH and hydrated NADPH. NAD(P)H spontaneously hydrates to both the (6S)- and (6R)- isomers, and these are interconverted by EC 5.1.99.6, NAD(P)H-hydrate epimerase, to a 60:40 ratio . Hence EC 4.2.1.93 together with EC 5.1.99.6 can restore the mixture of hydrates into NAD(P)H [3,4]. The enzyme from eukaryotes has no activity with ADP, contrary to the enzyme from bacteria (cf. EC 4.2.1.136, ADP-dependent NAD(P)H-hydrate dehydratase) .

human cells deficient in the NAD(P)HX dehydratase accumulate NADHX and show decreased viability. In addition, those cells consume more glucose and produce more lactate than the wild-type, potentially indicating impaired mitochondrial function. NADHX accumulation affects cellular functions causing the rapid and severe neurodegeneration leading to early death in NADHX repair-deficient children
the metabolite repair system formed by the two enzymes NAD(P)HX dehydratase and NAD(P)HX epimerase allows reconversion of both the S- and R-epimers of NADHX and NADPHX to the normal cofactors. The NAD(P)HX dehydratase and epimerase are two members of a list of enzymes that have been recognized to participate in a process called metabolite repair or metabolite proofreading and in which a panoply of protective enzymatic activities are required to prevent the accumulation of noncanonical, potentially toxic metabolites that are formed continuously via enzymatic side reactions or spontaneous chemical reactions
the NAD(P)HX repair system has a role in preserving active forms of the central cofactors NAD and NADP and/or preventing accumulation of toxic derivatives thereof. NADHX and NADPHX are hydrated and redox inactive forms of the NADH and NADPH cofactors, known to inhibit several dehydrogenases in vitro

LITERATURE
construction of cells deficient in the NAD(P)HX repair enzymes using HAP1 haploid cell lines and genetical modification by the CRISPR/Cas9 technology to disrupt the human homologue of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae YKL151C gene, NAXD. In the NAXD KO cell line, the mutated NAXD gene encodes a truncated protein containing the first 126 amino acids (out of the 329 amino acids of the native mitochondrial isoform) followed by nine non-native amino acids.
