In enzymology, pantoate 4-dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.106) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

+ NAD+
 
 
 
H+
Pantoate 4-dehydrogenase
 
H+
 
+ NADH
 

The two substrates of this enzyme are (R)-pantoic acid and oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). Its products are (R)-4-dehydropantoic 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 (R)-pantoate:NAD+ 4-oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include pantoate dehydrogenase, pantothenase, and D-pantoate:NAD+ 4-oxidoreductase. This enzyme participates in pantothenate and coa biosynthesis.
