(R,R)-butanediol dehydrogenase
In enzymology, a -butanediol dehydrogenase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are -butane-2,3-diol and NAD, whereas its 3 products are -acetoin, NADH, and H.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with NAD or NADP as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is -butane-2,3-diol:NAD oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include butyleneglycol dehydrogenase, D-butanediol dehydrogenase, D--butanediol dehydrogenase, butylene glycol dehydrogenase, diacetyl reductase, D-aminopropanol dehydrogenase, D-aminopropanol dehydrogenase, 1-amino-2-propanol dehydrogenase, 2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase, D-1-amino-2-propanol dehydrogenase, -diacetyl reductase, -2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase, D-1-amino-2-propanol:NAD oxidoreductase, 1-amino-2-propanol oxidoreductase, and aminopropanol oxidoreductase. This enzyme participates in butanoic acid metabolism.
