Key Features and Details
Alcohol Dehydrogenase
| SKU | 02100161-CF |
| Alternate Names | ADH; Alcohol : NAD+ oxidoreductase |
| Application Notes | Alcohol dehydrogenase catalyzes the reaction: RCH2OH +NAD+ ↔ RCHO + NADH + H+ It facilitates the interconversion between alcohols and aldehydes or ketones with the reduction of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+ to NADH). In biotransformation, alcohol dehydrogenases are often used for the synthesis of enantiomerically pure stereoisomers of chiral alcohols. |
| Base Catalog Number | 100161 |
| Biochemical Physiological Actions | Yeast alcohol dehydrogenase (yADH) serves as an excellent model system for enzyme-catalyzed H transfer because unlike many other enzymes, the chemical step, oxidation of a primary alcohol to an aldehyde by NAD+, is rate-limiting with aromatic substrates. |
| CAS # | 9031-72-5 |
| EC Number | 232-870-4 |
| Extinction Coefficient | E1%260= 12.6(lit.) |
| Format | Powder |
| Grade | 2× Crystallized |
| Isoelectric Point | 5.4(lit.) |
| Personal Protective Equipment | Eyeshields, Gloves, respirator filter |
| Source | Yeast |
| Specific Activity | ≥300 u/mg protein |
| Specificity | Yeast ADH which has a more narrow specificity than that of liver enzyme; accepts ethanol; is somewhat active on the straight chain primary alcohols; and acts to a very limited extent on certain secondary and branched chain alcohols. NADP does not serve as coenzyme. |
| Unit Definition | One unit will convert 1.0 µmole of NAD/min at 25°C. |
