Perakine reductase (EC 1.1.1.317) is an enzyme with systematic name raucaffrinoline:NADP+ oxidoreductase.[1][2] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

raucaffrinoline + NADP+ perakine + NADPH + H+

The biosynthesis of raucaffrinoline from perakine is a side route of the ajmaline biosynthesis pathway.
