In enzymology, a retinal dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.36) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- retinal + NAD+ + H2O retinoic acid + NADH + H+
The 3 substrates of this enzyme are retinal, NAD+, and H2O, whereas its 3 products are retinoic acid, NADH, 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 retinal:NAD+ oxidoreductase. This enzyme is also called cytosolic retinal dehydrogenase. This enzyme participates in retinol metabolism. FAD is a cofactor.
