In enzymology a hexadecanol dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.164) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionhexadecanol + NAD+ hexadecanal + NADH + H+Thus the two substrates of this enzyme are hexadecanol and NAD+ whereas its 3 products are hexadecanal 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 hexadecanol:NAD+ oxidoreductase.
