In enzymology a glycerate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.29) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction(D)-glycerate + NAD+ hydroxypyruvate + NADH + H+Thus the two substrates of this enzyme are (R)-glycerate and NAD+ whereas its 3 products are hydroxypyruvate NADH and H+. However in nature these enzymes have the ability to catalyze the reverse reaction as well. That is hydroxypyruvate NADH and H+ can act as the substrates while (R)-glycerate and NAD+ are formed as products.
