The two substrates of this enzyme are (S)-carnitine and oxidised nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). Its products are 3-dehydrocarnitine, reduced NADH, and a proton.[1][2]
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 (S)-carnitine:NAD+ oxidoreductase.
