Functional Family S-(hydroxymethyl)glutathione dehydrogenase

Enzyme Information

1.1.1.1
Alcohol dehydrogenase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q9QYY9
(1) A primary alcohol + NAD(+) = an aldehyde + NADH. (2) A secondary alcohol + NAD(+) = a ketone + NADH.
-!- Acts on primary or secondary alcohols or hemi-acetals with very broad specificity; however the enzyme oxidizes methanol much more poorly than ethanol. -!- The animal, but not the yeast, enzyme acts also on cyclic secondary alcohols.
