In enzymology an aldose 1-dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.121) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionD-aldose + NAD+ D-aldonolactone + NADH + H+Thus the two substrates of this enzyme are D-aldose and NAD+ whereas its 3 products are D-aldonolactone NADH and H+.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 D-aldose:NAD+ 1-oxidoreductase.
