Beta-alanopine dehydrogenase

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In enzymology, a beta-alanopine dehydrogenase (EC 1.5.1.26) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

beta-alanopine + NAD+ + H2O \rightleftharpoons beta-alanine + pyruvate + NADH + H+

The 3 substrates of this enzyme are beta-alanopine, NAD+, and H2O, whereas its 4 products are beta-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 N-(D-1-carboxyethyl)-beta-alanine:NAD+ oxidoreductase (beta-alanine-forming).
