Alanopine dehydrogenase


Alanopine dehydrogenase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The 2 substrates of this enzyme are 2,2'-iminodipropanoate, and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide+. water is excluded since water is 55M and does not change. Its 4 products are L-alanine, pyruvate, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, and hydrogen ion.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-NH group of donors with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 2,2'-iminodipropanoate:NAD+ oxidoreductase . Other names in common use include ALPDH, alanopinedehydrogenase, meso-N--alanine:NAD+ oxidoreductase, alanopine: NAD+ oxidoreductase, ADH, and alanopine:NAD+ oxidoreductase.
