Octanol dehydrogenase


In enzymology, an octanol dehydrogenase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The two substrates of this enzyme are 1-octanol and oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. Its products are 1-octanal, reduced NADH, and a proton.
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 octanol:NAD+ oxidoreductase. This enzyme is also called 1-octanol dehydrogenase.
