Strombine dehydrogenase

Template:Infobox enzyme In enzymology, a strombine dehydrogenase (Template:EC number) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

N-(carboxymethyl)-D-alanine + NAD⁺ + H₂O $\rightleftharpoons$ glycine + pyruvate + NADH + H⁺

The 3 substrates of this enzyme are N-(carboxymethyl)-D-alanine, NAD⁺, and H₂O, whereas its 4 products are glycine, pyruvate, NADH, and H⁺.

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-NH group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is N-(carboxymethyl)-D-alanine:NAD+ oxidoreductase (glycine-forming). Other names in common use include strombine[N-(carboxymethyl)-D-alanine]dehydrogenase, and N-(carboxymethyl)-D-alanine: NAD+ oxidoreductase.
