In enzymology, strombine dehydrogenase (EC 1.5.1.22) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

The three substrates of this enzyme are strombine, oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), and water. Its products are glycine, reduced NADH, pyruvic acid, and a proton. [1] Strombine, also known as (N-(carboxymethyl)-D-alanine), is a member of the class of compounds called opines. [2]

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-NH group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is N-(carboxymethyl)-D-alanine:NAD+ oxidoreductase (glycine-forming). Other names in common use include strombine[N-(carboxymethyl)-D-alanine]dehydrogenase, and N-(carboxymethyl)-D-alanine: NAD+ oxidoreductase.
