In enzymology, lysine dehydrogenase (EC 1.4.1.15) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The two substrates of this enzyme are L-lysine and oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). Its products are 1-piperideine-2-carboxylic acid, ammonia, reduced NADH, and a proton. [1] [2]
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-NH2 group of donors with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is L-lysine:NAD+ oxidoreductase (deaminating, cyclizing).
