In enzymology a methylglyoxal reductase (NADH-dependent) (EC 1.1.1.78) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction(R)-lactaldehyde + NAD+ methylglyoxal + NADH + H+Thus the two substrates of this enzyme are (R)-lactaldehyde and NAD+ whereas its 3 products are methylglyoxal 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.
