In enzymology, (S)-2-hydroxy-fatty-acid dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.99) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

+ NAD+
 
 
 
H+
(S)-2-hydroxy-fatty-acid dehydrogenase
 
H+
 
+ NADH
 

The two substrates of this enzyme are (S)-2-hydroxystearic acid and oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). Its products are 2-oxostearic acid, reduced NADH, and a proton. [1] [2]

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 (S)-2-hydroxystearate:NAD+ oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include dehydrogenase, L-2-hydroxy fatty acid, L-2-hydroxy fatty acid dehydrogenase, and 2-hydroxy fatty acid oxidase.
