Tauropine dehydrogenase
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In enzymology, a tauropine dehydrogenase (EC 1.5.1.23) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- tauropine + NAD+ + H2O taurine + pyruvate + NADH + H+
The 3 substrates of this enzyme are tauropine, NAD+, and H2O, whereas its 4 products are taurine, 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 N2-(D-1-carboxyethyl)taurine:NAD+ oxidoreductase (taurine-forming). This enzyme is also called 2-N-(D-1-carboxyethyl)taurine:NAD+ oxidoreductase (taurine-forming).
