The two substrates of this enzyme are 4-(hydroxymethyl)benzenesulfonic acid and oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). Its products are 4-formylbenzenesulfonic 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 4-(hydroxymethyl)benzenesulfonate:NAD+ oxidoreductase. This enzyme participates in 2,4-dichlorobenzoate degradation.
