L-glycol dehydrogenase

In enzymology, a L-glycol dehydrogenase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The 3 substrates of this enzyme are L-glycol, NAD⁺, and NADP⁺, whereas its 4 products are 2-hydroxycarbonyl compound, NADH, NADPH, and H⁺.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with NAD⁺ or NADP⁺ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is L-glycol:NAD⁺ oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include glycol , dehydrogenase, L--glycol:NAD⁺ oxidoreductase, and L-glycol:NAD⁺ dehydrogenase.
