In enzymology, 3-(imidazol-5-yl)lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.111) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

+ NADH
 

The two substrates of this enzyme are (S)-3-(imidazol-5-yl)lactic acid and oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). Its products are imidazole-4-pyruvic acid, reduced NADH, and a proton. The enzyme can use the alternative cofactor, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate. [1] [2] [3]

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)-3-(imidazol-5-yl)lactate:NAD(P)+ oxidoreductase. This enzyme is also called imidazol-5-yl lactate dehydrogenase.
