In enzymology a mycothiol-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.66) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionformaldehyde + mycothiol + NAD+ S-formylmycothiol + NADH + 2 H+The 3 substrates of this enzyme are formaldehyde mycothiol and NAD+ whereas its 3 products are S-formylmycothiol NADH and H+.This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases specifically those acting on the aldehyde or oxo group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor.
