The 3 substrates of this enzyme are (S)-lactaldehyde, NAD+, and H2O, whereas its 3 products are (S)-lactate, NADH, and H+.

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the aldehyde or oxo group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is (S)-lactaldehyde:NAD+ oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include L-lactaldehyde:NAD+ oxidoreductase, and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-linked dehydrogenase. This enzyme participates in pyruvate metabolism.

Structural studies

As of late 2007, 4 structures have been solved for this class of enzymes, with PDB accession codes 2HG2, 2ILU, 2IMP, and 2OPX.

gollark: > Heh.. This is as bad as using labels for communication between side touching computers.I really should work out the high level labelnet API!

gollark: It was designed for minecarts but should apply broadly.
gollark: If you're doing flying pigs, you may be interested in my station-keeping code, which was slightly stolen from Sascha_T then edited lots.
gollark: I believe the HTML5 spec has some char-by-char HTML parsing algorithm to deal with the bad HTML pages out there.
