- meso-tartrate + NAD+
dihydroxyfumarate + NADH + H+
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are meso-tartaric acid and NAD+, whereas its 3 products are dihydroxyfumarate, NADH, and H+.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-CH group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is meso-tartrate:NAD+ oxidoreductase. This enzyme participates in glyoxylic acid and dicarboxylic acid metabolism.
