Glycine dehydrogenase


In enzymology, a glycine dehydrogenase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The 3 substrates of this enzyme are glycine, H2O, and NAD+, whereas its 4 products are glyoxylate, NH3, NADH, and H+.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-NH2 group of donors with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is glycine:NAD+ oxidoreductase .
This should not be confused with:
the glycine dehydrogenase, which is another name for the Glycine cleavage system P-protein.
or the glycine dehydroganse.
or the glycine dehydrogenase .
