Alanopine dehydrogenase

In enzymology, an alanopine dehydrogenase (EC number|1.5.1.17) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

:2,2'-iminodipropanoate + NAD⁺ + H₂O $ightleftharpoons$ L-alanine + pyruvate + NADH + H⁺

The 3 substrates of this enzyme are 2,2'-iminodipropanoate, NAD⁺, and H₂O, whereas its 4 products are L-alanine, pyruvate, NADH, and H⁺.

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-NH group of donors with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 2,2'-iminodipropanoate:NAD+ oxidoreductase (L-alanine-forming). Other names in common use include ALPDH, alanopine [meso-N-(1-carboxyethyl)-alanine] dehydrogenase, meso-N-(1-carboxyethyl)-alanine:NAD+ oxidoreductase, alanopine: NAD+ oxidoreductase, ADH, and alanopine:NAD+ oxidoreductase.
