In enzymology, 3-methylbutanal reductase (EC 1.1.1.265) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The two substrates of this enzyme are isoamyl alcohol (3-methylbutan-1-ol) and oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). Its products are isovaleraldehyde (3-methylbutanal), reduced NADH, and a proton. The enzyme can also use the alternative cofactor, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate [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 3-methylbutanol:NAD(P)+ oxidoreductase.
