Malonate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase
In enzymology, a malonate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The 4 substrates of this enzyme are 3-oxopropanoate, NAD+, NADP+, and H2O, whereas its 4 products are malonate, NADH, NADPH, and H+.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the aldehyde or oxo group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 3-oxopropanoate:NAD+ oxidoreductase. This enzyme participates in beta-alanine metabolism.
