Description
Catalyzes the formation of isethionate from 2-sulfoacetaldehyde in the deaminative pathway of taurine. The enzyme is specific for NADPH; NADH is not a substrate. Responsible for most of the activity observed in taurine-grown cells.
Family
Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.
